Flying private to the Hamptons

East Hampton Airport is the closest to East Hampton, Sag Harbor, Amagansett and Bridgehampton, and takes light and midsize jets, turboprops and helicopters. It has noise rules that restrict some aircraft and times of day, especially in summer, so flights are planned around them.

Francis S. Gabreski Airport in Westhampton Beach, further west, takes larger jets and is the usual choice for Southampton and the western Hamptons, or when East Hampton's rules do not fit the aircraft. Montauk has a small airfield for small aircraft and helicopters.

From Manhattan most people go by helicopter, about 45 minutes from a city heliport instead of hours on the road on a summer Friday. From Teterboro or Westchester the flight by jet is short; from Boston, Washington or Palm Beach a light or midsize jet flies non-stop.
