Private Jet Flights Concord
Private Jet Charter arranges on-demand private jet flights to and from Concord, California.
Concord isn’t a resort town — private flights here are about convenience. It sits in the East Bay, about 29 miles from San Francisco at the foot of Mount Diablo, and it’s one of Contra Costa County’s largest employment centers — minutes from Walnut Creek, the Interstate 680 corporate corridor, and Napa wine country to the north. For anyone doing business in the East Bay, the appeal is simple: you can avoid the congestion associated with San Francisco and Oakland International.
That’s because Concord has its own airport. Buchanan Field (CCR) sits a mile from downtown and handles private jets, so you land close to your destination — no TSA lines, no crowded terminals, and a quick drive to Walnut Creek or the 680 corridor rather than an hour in Bay Area traffic.
Buchanan Field’s runway handles light, midsize, and super-midsize jets — the cabins most California and Western trips use. For a heavy or ultra-long-range jet, or an international arrival that needs customs, Oakland is about 20 to 25 minutes away.
Demand runs year-round, driven by East Bay corporate travel, the wider Bay Area economy, and the Napa and Livermore wine country nearby. It picks up around concerts at the Concord Pavilion and the region’s business calendar.

Concord Airports
Concord is served by Buchanan Field, with the major Bay Area airports nearby for anything it can’t handle.
Buchanan Field (CCR) sits about a mile from downtown Concord, roughly 29 miles east of San Francisco, just off Interstate 680. It’s a general and business-aviation airport with a control tower, instrument approaches, and a longest runway of 5,001 feet. At sea level, that runway handles the great majority of charter aircraft — light, midsize, and super-midsize jets — which covers most California and Western business trips. Concord Jet Center, the field’s largest full-service FBO, provides fueling, hangar space, and direct ramp access, with Pacific States Aviation also on the field.
Two things route elsewhere. Buchanan Field isn’t a customs port of entry, so international arrivals clear at a nearby airport first; and the largest heavy and ultra-long-range jets need more runway than CCR offers. In both cases, Oakland International is about 20 to 25 minutes away, with long runways, full customs, and any-aircraft capability.
For the vast majority of trips into the East Bay, though, Buchanan Field is the closest and quickest arrival — minutes from Concord, Walnut Creek, and the 680 corridor, and well clear of the crowds at San Francisco and Oakland.
Airport option:
- Oakland International (OAK) — about 20 to 25 minutes away, with long runways, full customs, and capacity for heavy and ultra-long-range jets. The choice for the largest cabins or international arrivals.
How Much Does a Private Jet Charter to Concord Cost?
Average hourly charter rates vary by aircraft category:
- $2,500–$5,000 per hour — turboprops and light jets
- $5,000–$9,500 per hour — midsize and super-midsize jets
- $8,500–$14,000 per hour — heavy jets
- $13,000–$22,000+ per hour — ultra-long-range jets
Your final price depends on several things: aircraft type, distance, repositioning, airport fees, travel dates, and demand.
Most Concord trips are California and Western business runs — from Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, Las Vegas, or Seattle — flown on light and midsize jets that fit Buchanan Field comfortably. Longer cross-country itineraries move up to super-midsize cabins, which the field also handles; most heavy and ultra-long-range aircraft use Oakland International for the added runway and customs.
Because demand here is business-driven rather than seasonal, pricing stays more consistent than in resort markets. Short-notice trips are common, and our advisors can often arrange same-day or next-day departures.

Empty Leg Flights to Concord
Empty leg flights can be one of the most cost-effective ways to fly private. These repositioning flights happen when an aircraft has to relocate for its next charter. That lets you book the empty segment at a steep discount — often 25% to 75% below standard pricing.
California’s busiest private-aviation corridor runs through the Bay Area, with aircraft repositioning constantly between the East Bay, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and the Pacific Northwest. That movement creates regular empty-leg opportunities into and out of Concord. The trade-off is flexibility, since the original trip sets the route and dates.

Concord Overview
Concord sits in the East Bay, about 29 miles east of San Francisco and nestled against the hills of Mount Diablo. It’s the largest city in Contra Costa County and one of its largest employment centers, with a diversified economy and easy access to the wider Bay Area — one of the world’s largest regional economies.
The economy runs on healthcare, retail, and regional services, anchored by John Muir Health and a downtown around Todos Santos Plaza, with a major redevelopment of the former Concord Naval Weapons Station underway. Just as important is the city’s position: it’s minutes from Walnut Creek’s business and retail core, the Interstate 680 corporate corridor, and the Tri-Valley — including San Ramon’s Bishop Ranch, long the home base of Chevron. That access makes Concord a practical arrival point for executives working across the East Bay.
Beyond business, Concord is a gateway. Mount Diablo State Park rises just to the south, Napa and Sonoma wine country lie about 45 minutes to an hour north, and the Livermore Valley wineries are a short drive away — with San Francisco and Berkeley roughly half an hour off.
What to Do in Concord
- Mount Diablo State Park — the landmark peak above the city, with hiking, cycling, and a summit view that reaches across much of Northern California on a clear day.
- Concord Pavilion — the 12,500-seat outdoor amphitheater, one of the Bay Area’s major concert venues.
- Todos Santos Plaza — the heart of downtown Concord, with a farmers market, restaurants, and regular live music.
- Wine country — Napa and Sonoma about an hour north, and the Livermore Valley wineries close by.
- San Francisco and Berkeley — the waterfront, culture, and dining of the wider Bay Area, roughly 30 minutes away.
Where to Stay in Concord
- Crowne Plaza Concord — the main full-service hotel, with 324 rooms, an atrium, and 20,000-plus square feet of meeting space, near Walnut Creek and BART.
- Hilton Concord — a full-service business hotel convenient to the 680 corridor.
- Walnut Creek, about ten minutes away — upscale options including the Renaissance and the Walnut Creek Marriott.
- Napa Valley — travelers wanting a luxury resort base often stay in Napa, about 45 minutes to an hour north, and use Concord as the closest practical business airport; private-home rentals suit longer East Bay stays.
Whether you’re flying in for an East Bay meeting, a wine-country weekend, or a concert at the Pavilion, our charter advisors coordinate every detail — from aircraft selection and airport planning to executive ground transportation and concierge services.
