Aspen Airport Size Limits: A Private Jet Charter Story In a recent incident, a client of Amalfi Jets faced a common problem in private aviation: his jet was too large to land at Aspen's airport. The situation, as described by the Amalfi Jets representative, involved a last-minute need to charter a smaller aircraft for a trip to Aspen for the weekend of Mother's Day. The client, identified only as John, needed a quick solution for his family's travel plans. "Terrible situation," the representative explained in a text message shown in the video. "The wife wants to go to Aspen, but apparently my G650 wingspan is too long." The video showcases the ease with which Amalfi Jets resolved the issue, securing a suitable G550 for the round trip at a cost of $42,000. This anecdote highlights the specialized services offered by private jet charter companies to accommodate diverse needs and unexpected challenges in luxury travel.
