There is no formal noise curfew at Newark-Heath, but operators are encouraged to observe quiet hours between 11:00 PM and 6:00 AM to minimize community impact. All Jettly flights comply with local guidelines and best practices for noise abatement.

Newark-Heath FBOs provide executive lounges, high-speed Wi-Fi, private conference rooms, gourmet catering coordination, and chauffeured ground transportation. Your Jettly concierge will confirm your FBO assignment during the booking process.
King Air 350, Pilatus PC-12, and Cessna Caravan are ideal for short regional flights and destinations with limited runway lengths. Perfect for trips to Cleveland, Indianapolis, and the Great Lakes region.
Aircraft such as the Eclipse 550 and Phenom 100 deliver efficient, comfortable service for quick flights under two hours with up to four passengers.
A popular choice for business and leisure from Newark-Heath, light jets like the Phenom 300, Citation CJ3+, and Learjet 45 seat 6-8 passengers and handle routes to Chicago, Nashville, and Charlotte with ease.
The Citation XLS+, Hawker 800XP, and Learjet 60 offer spacious cabins, generous baggage capacity, and the range to reach Miami, Dallas, or Boston non-stop. Seats typically accommodate 7-9 passengers.
While Newark-Heath’s runway limits most super-midsize jets, select aircraft such as the Citation Sovereign may operate under favorable conditions for longer domestic missions and enhanced onboard comfort.
Due to runway length and weight restrictions, most heavy jets require alternate airports for operation. Jettly coordinates departures from larger facilities in the Columbus area for long-haul and international flights.

Newark-Heath’s runway and weight limitations mean that ultra-long-range and heavy jet operations are best routed through John Glenn Columbus International (CMH) or Rickenbacker (LCK). Jettly will recommend the optimal airport based on your aircraft and travel needs.
