Transworld Jets Insider Tip
Skip Miami International (MIA) entirely. Our brokers recommend Opa-locka Executive (OPF) for Miami arrivals. It's exclusively private aviation with zero commercial traffic, faster customs for international connections, and you're 20 minutes from South Beach. For New York departures, Teterboro (TEB) is the gold standard, but Westchester (HPN) can save 30 minutes if you're coming from Connecticut or Westchester County.
