Santa Monica Airports
While Santa Monica Airport (SMO) has long served business aviation, the airport is scheduled to close permanently at the end of 2028, and many operators already favor nearby alternatives that offer greater flexibility for private aircraft.
Van Nuys Airport (VNY) remains the premier business aviation airport in the Los Angeles region. Located approximately 18 miles from Santa Monica, it offers multiple FBOs, 24-hour airport access, subject to a nighttime noise curfew for certain aircraft, long runways capable of accommodating virtually every category of business jet, and one of the country’s busiest private aviation infrastructures.
Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) provides another convenient option, particularly for travelers with business across northern Los Angeles. It features dedicated business aviation facilities, efficient ground handling, and easy highway access to Santa Monica.
Additional airport options include:
- Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
- Hawthorne Municipal Airport (HHR)
The most suitable airport depends on your aircraft size, destination within Los Angeles, traffic conditions, and operational requirements.
