Choosing an airfield here
What drives the choice in this area: where the traffic goes, where you can clear, and what you can land.
Overview
17 airfields serve Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast. President Donald J Trump International (KDJT) handles the most business aviation traffic, with 40% of the area's business jet movements , followed by Boca Raton and Witham Field . The area spans Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River, and Okeechobee counties along Florida's southeast coast, running roughly 60 NM from the coastal corridor around West Palm Beach and Boca Raton up to Sebastian and inland to Okeechobee. Field spacing is tight near the coast and looser toward the interior, with most airports and all five customs points sitting within 30 NM of the center. Winter and early spring bring the heaviest business jet traffic, while summer months see a marked drop as seasonal residents and operators head elsewhere. Elevation stays low throughout, under 35 feet at every field.

Frequently asked questions
How many airports in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area offer CBP inspection on-site?
Five airports in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area carry CBP inspection services, each paired with a USDA compliance agreement: President Donald J Trump International (KDJT), Boca Raton (KBCT), Witham Field (KSUA), Vero Beach Regional (KVRB), and Treasure Coast International (KFPR). All five also hold Jet A and tower service, so a customs arrival does not force a tradeoff against fuel or ATC availability. With five options spread across the area, an operator can weigh a customs stop against other routing factors such as ramp space or parking duration without narrowing the field down to a single airport by default.
Which airport in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area has the longest runway, and how does that compare with the other towered fields?
President Donald J Trump International (KDJT) has the longest runway in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area at 10,001 feet, well above the other towered fields: Boca Raton (KBCT) at 6,276 feet, Witham Field (KSUA) at 5,828 feet, Vero Beach Regional (KVRB) at 7,314 feet, and Treasure Coast International (KFPR) at 6,492 feet. Four fields in the area report paved runways of 6,000 feet or more. Heavier or longer-range jets that need runway length beyond the mid-6,000-foot range have only one field in the area that clears the 10,000-foot mark.
How does business jet traffic in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area shift between March and August?
Business jet movements in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area peaked at 19,813 in March 2025 and dropped to 8,107 in August, a swing of roughly 11,700 movements across five months. Seven months of the year run above the average monthly figure of 13,993, concentrated from October through April, while June through September sit below it. A dispatcher planning ramp or handling needs across the area should size for the March peak rather than the annual average, since August-level demand understates what the same fields see in winter and early spring.
What separates Witham Field, Vero Beach Regional, and Treasure Coast International from the customs airports farther north in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area?
Witham Field (KSUA), Vero Beach Regional (KVRB), and Treasure Coast International (KFPR) form a cluster in the northern part of the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area, with KVRB and KFPR just 10 NM apart and KSUA to KFPR at 21 NM. That is tighter than the spacing back toward President Donald J Trump International (KDJT), which sits 51 NM from KFPR and 61 NM from KVRB. All three northern fields carry customs, Jet A, and tower service, giving an operator three closely spaced customs-capable options in that part of the area instead of one isolated field.
How many airfields in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area are private-use, and what does that mean for the public-use count?
Of the 17 airfields tracked in the Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast area, 10 are public-use airports and the remainder are private strips such as Wellington Aero Club (FD38), Tailwinds (FD15), Treasure Coast Airpark (FL37), Naked Lady Ranch (64FA), William P Gwinn (06FA), and Brady Ranch (80FD). The runway-length, customs, and elevation figures cited for the area draw only from the 10 public-use fields. A dispatcher scanning the area for a public alternate should treat the private fields as reference points only, not as options for an unscheduled diversion or customs clearance.
