The Private Aviation Standard for Lakehurst

Lakehurst NAES Maxfield Field is renowned for its historical significance, most notably as the landing site of the Hindenburg. Today, the field remains a vital part of U.S. military and government operations, yet select private jet flights are accommodated through prior coordination and strict security protocols.


With its expansive airfield and robust runway infrastructure, Lakehurst NAES supports a variety of jet types, although access is limited compared to civil airports. The airport’s separation from commercial traffic ensures a seamless experience for those eligible to operate here, with exclusive ground services and a focus on operational security.


Lakehurst is especially appealing for private jet passengers seeking discreet, direct access to the Jersey Shore, central New Jersey, and points throughout the Mid-Atlantic. Ground transfers are efficiently managed within the secured perimeter, minimizing downtime between arrival and departure. For business travelers, government officials, and high-profile passengers, Lakehurst offers a level of privacy and convenience rarely found at other airports in the region.
