What our brokers know about KMVY

Nearby island alternative

Martha's Vineyard Airport's 5,504 ft of runway is longer than most of the 17 jet-capable fields in Massachusetts, close to sea level, so the published runway figure is close to what an aircraft actually needs here. 18 of the 24 types we broker clear it; the runway rules out 6. 17 published route pages reach Nantucket through this field.

Access

Getting here

Straight-line distances from the cities we publish, with a typical aircraft's block time including taxi, climb and descent.

From-prices are one way and all-in — operator price, our fee and federal excise tax — for the smallest cabin suited to the distance, indicative rather than quoted.

Corridors

Charter routes through Nantucket

Corridors we quote regularly, shortest first. Each carries the cabins that fly it, block times and the fields at both ends.

Runway

What can operate here

Compared against the published balanced field length of every type we broker, with roughly 3% added per 1,000 ft of elevation for density altitude.

This is runway length only. Individual airports also restrict by wingspan, noise curfew, slot availability and special approach certification, and performance moves with temperature, weight and the day. Clearing the runway here means an aircraft is worth asking about — the operator confirms it, and signs for it.
