San Pedro’s main runway supports aircraft up to 60,000 lbs maximum takeoff weight, accommodating turboprops, light jets, midsize jets, and select super-midsize jets, while larger heavy jets must use alternative airports in the region.

San Pedro operates under a slot allocation system managed by the airport authority. Slot requests for both arrivals and departures must be submitted at least 24 hours in advance. Jettly’s operations team coordinates all slot and landing permit requirements for your flight.

A noise curfew is in effect from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM at San Pedro. Only Stage 3 or quieter aircraft are permitted to operate during these hours. This curfew is factored into all Jettly itineraries and should be considered when planning late-night travel.

While San Pedro’s runway supports some super-midsize jets, larger heavy jets such as the Gulfstream G550 and Falcon 2000 require longer runways available at LAX or Van Nuys for ultra-long-haul missions.

Due to runway and weight limitations, ultra-long-range jets may need to operate from LAX or Van Nuys for maximum performance. Jettly’s team will recommend the optimal departure airport based on your aircraft and route.
