Nantucket is the quintessential New England summer destination, cobblestone streets, cedar-shingled cottages, and some of the most exclusive real estate on the Eastern Seaboard. Flying private is often the only practical way to reach the island during peak season, when ferry reservations sell out months in advance.
Nantucket Memorial Airport (ACK) has a 6,303-foot runway that handles light jets and turboprops comfortably. Larger aircraft should plan for Hyannis (HYA) or Martha's Vineyard (MVY). Ramp space is extremely limited Jul–Aug, book slots well in advance and expect premium pricing.
