An event on Nantucket means everyone arrives on the same small island, and the times are worth agreeing on well before the date.
Artists, Crew and Festival Travel
Touring travel is a sequence of fixed dates with very little room between them. Nantucket is usually one stop on that run rather than the base, so the routing matters more than the aircraft.
Reaching the Venue
Festival sites are often nowhere near a large airport. If you provide us with the venue’s information rather than the airport, we can get you closest to your destination.
Moving Equipment Separately
Equipment usually travels separately from people, and on an island that separation is worth planning: the cargo leg needs its own slot on the ramp, and we sequence both so the site can actually receive them.
Nantucket-Specific Patterns We Plan Around
There is no customs on Nantucket. An international arrival clears on the mainland first, and Cape Cod Gateway Airport at Hyannis is the nearest customs landing rights airport. Martha’s Vineyard has no customs either, so island-hopping does not solve it.
Vetting Behind Every Trip
Before we confirm anything, we check:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- The operator’s safety and incident history
- That the pilots are experienced, qualified and current on the aircraft type you will be flying on
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them
