Amsterdam to New York is one of the most travelled private jet corridors from the Netherlands: a route driven by corporate relocations, Dutch-American business ties, and UHNW leisure travel between two of Europe and North America's most connected cities. At just under 6,000 kilometres, it is slightly longer than London to New York and places stricter demands on aircraft range. This is the 2026 guide: departure airports, arrival airports, which aircraft can do it nonstop, and what the full cost looks like.

Route Overview: Amsterdam to New York by Private Jet

Amsterdam (Schiphol) to New York (Teterboro) is approximately 5,850 km (3,640 miles / 3,160 nautical miles), slightly longer than London to New York and one of the longer transatlantic sectors from Western Europe. Westbound flight time is 8 to 9 hours nonstop; eastbound (New York to Amsterdam) is 7 to 7 hours 30 minutes with the jet stream. The extra distance compared to London makes nonstop more dependent on aircraft type and payload.

Amsterdam Departure Airports

Three airports serve the Amsterdam region for transatlantic private jet departures:

Amsterdam Schiphol (EHAM): the primary hub for long-range and ultra-long-range departures from the Netherlands. Private terminals via Signature Flight Support and ExecuJet. Handles all aircraft types. Can be congested during peak commercial periods but has the infrastructure to support transatlantic operations
Rotterdam The Hague (EHRD): 45–60 minutes from Amsterdam, significantly quieter than Schiphol with faster ground handling. Suitable for heavy jets and below; ultra-long-range aircraft with maximum fuel loads typically require Schiphol's longer runways
Lelystad (EHLE): no slot restrictions, useful for avoiding Schiphol congestion. Limited to lighter aircraft types; not suitable for ultra-long-range transatlantic departures

New York Arrival Airports for Private Jets

Private jets arriving from Amsterdam use one of three airports in the greater New York area:

Teterboro (KTEB)

Teterboro is the standard arrival airport for private jets into New York, located in New Jersey, 20 kilometres from Midtown Manhattan. Two FBOs on-site (Signature Flight Support and Million Air), US Customs and Border Protection available, and ground transfer to Manhattan of 20–45 minutes. The default choice for most Amsterdam to New York itineraries.

Westchester County / White Plains (KHPN)

Westchester, 50 kilometres north of Manhattan, is used for ultra-long-range jets that require longer runway performance at near-maximum landing weight after the transatlantic crossing. Transfer to Midtown takes 45–60 minutes. A practical option for clients based in Connecticut or Westchester County.

Stewart International (KSWF)

Stewart, 100 kilometres north of Manhattan, has a 3,600-metre runway: the longest in the region. Used operationally by certain ultra-long-range aircraft arriving at or near maximum gross weight. Transfer to Manhattan is approximately 90 minutes. Occasionally the only viable option for specific aircraft configurations on longer sectors like Amsterdam to New York.

Nonstop or Fuel Stop: The Amsterdam Difference

Amsterdam to New York is approximately 350 km longer than London to New York: a difference that matters for borderline aircraft. On the westbound sector (against the jet stream), the threshold between nonstop and fuel-stop is tighter:

Super-midsize jets (Challenger 300, Citation Sovereign+): range 5,500–6,500 km. One fuel stop required westbound: Amsterdam to New York is at or beyond their practical range
Heavy jets (Challenger 604/605, Falcon 2000LXS, Gulfstream G450): range 7,500–8,500 km. Nonstop is possible in favourable conditions with moderate payload, but a precautionary stop at Shannon is more commonly scheduled for this sector than on London to New York
Ultra-long-range jets (Gulfstream G550, G650/G650ER, Bombardier Global 6000/7500, Falcon 7X/8X): range 11,000–14,000 km. Nonstop guaranteed in both directions, comfortably within range

Common fuel stop airports on this routing:

Shannon (EINN), Ireland: most common westbound tech stop, approximately 1.5 hours from Schiphol, quick turnaround
Reykjavik (BIKF), Iceland: Northern Atlantic routing option, adds distance but can be operationally preferred for certain aircraft
Gander (CYQX), Newfoundland: occasional mid-Atlantic stop inbound to the US east coast

Aircraft Options for Amsterdam to New York

Super-midsize jet (Citation Sovereign+, Challenger 300): 8–9 passengers, 1 fuel stop required, stand-up cabin, most accessible entry point for transatlantic travel from Amsterdam
Heavy jet (Challenger 604/605, Falcon 2000, Gulfstream G450): 10–14 passengers, nonstop possible with favourable winds and moderate payload, flat-bed seats on many configurations, dedicated galley
Ultra-long-range jet (Gulfstream G550/G650, Global 6000/7500, Falcon 7X/8X): 12–19 passengers, guaranteed nonstop Amsterdam to New York, full stand-up cabin, flat beds, shower on largest types

Private Jet Amsterdam to New York: 2026 Price Guide

Super-midsize jet (with fuel stop): €85,000–€125,000 one way
Heavy jet: €115,000–€175,000 one way
Ultra-long-range jet (nonstop): €155,000–€260,000 one way

Prices include crew, landing fees, handling, and standard catering. Aircraft positioning costs may add 30–50% if no repositioning leg is available out of Amsterdam. Return legs (New York to Amsterdam) can sometimes be sourced at a discount when the aircraft is positioning back to Europe. Schiphol departure fees are higher than Farnborough or Rotterdam for large aircraft. This is reflected in the pricing.

US Entry and Customs for Dutch Passengers

All passengers arriving in the US by private jet must clear US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). For Dutch passport holders:

ESTA required: Dutch citizens travelling to the US for tourism or business (up to 90 days) require an approved ESTA under the Visa Waiver Program. Apply at least 72 hours before departure at esta.cbp.dhs.gov
eAPIS submission: passenger and crew manifests must be filed electronically before departure via US CBP eAPIS. Jetvice handles this as standard for all transatlantic bookings
CBP on arrival at Teterboro: officers are on-site at the FBOs. Inspection takes 20–40 minutes. Passports, customs declarations, and agricultural items must be declared on arrival
No preclearance in the Netherlands: unlike some Canadian airports, there is no US preclearance at Schiphol or Rotterdam for private jets. All customs is processed on US arrival

Empty Leg Flights: Amsterdam to New York

Transatlantic empty legs on the Amsterdam to New York corridor appear occasionally, typically after a one-way charter when an aircraft needs to reposition. Fixed dates, fixed times, fixed aircraft. When available, the discount is significant: €40,000–€90,000 versus standard charter pricing on an ultra-long-range jet. Contact Jetvice to be added to our notification list for empty legs on this route.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fly nonstop from Amsterdam to New York by private jet?

Yes, in an ultra-long-range jet. Gulfstream G550, G650/G650ER, Bombardier Global 6000/7500, Falcon 7X, and Falcon 8X can all fly Amsterdam to New York nonstop. Heavy jets (Challenger 604/605, Gulfstream G450) can do it nonstop in favourable wind conditions with moderate payload, but often schedule a precautionary fuel stop at Shannon. Super-midsize jets require a stop.

How much does a private jet from Amsterdam to New York cost?

In 2026, a one-way private jet from Amsterdam to New York costs approximately €85,000–€125,000 for a super-midsize jet with fuel stop, €115,000–€175,000 for a heavy jet, and €155,000–€260,000 for an ultra-long-range nonstop. Prices vary with aircraft availability, payload, direction, season, and positioning costs from Schiphol.

How long is the flight from Amsterdam to New York by private jet?

Westbound (Amsterdam to New York) takes 8 to 9 hours nonstop in an ultra-long-range jet, flying against the jet stream. Eastbound (New York to Amsterdam) takes approximately 7 to 7 hours 30 minutes. A fuel stop at Shannon adds around 1 to 1.5 hours total. Amsterdam to New York is slightly longer than London to New York due to the more northerly departure point.

Which Amsterdam airport is best for a New York private jet flight?

Schiphol (EHAM) is the only practical choice for ultra-long-range jets departing at or near maximum fuel load on the transatlantic crossing. It has the runway length and FBO infrastructure to support these operations. Rotterdam (EHRD) can handle heavy jets on this sector with moderate payload. For most clients, the booking will default to Schiphol.

Is Amsterdam to New York longer than London to New York?

Yes, Amsterdam to New York is approximately 350 km longer than London to New York. This is enough to make a difference for borderline aircraft. Aircraft that can fly London to New York nonstop may need a fuel stop on Amsterdam to New York under the same conditions. Always confirm nonstop capability with your broker for your specific aircraft and passenger load.
