The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey has confirmed to Private Jet Card Comparisons how JSX can operate its Teterboro Airport flights.
Last week, View From The Wing reported JSX was starting flights from Teterboro Airport.
Teterboro is the busiest airport in the country in terms of private jet movements.
It is located in New Jersey, just across the Hudson River from Manhattan.
The only other airport in the New York metropolitan area currently served by JSX is Westchester County, about an hour north of the city, give or take, based on traffic.
Teterboro flights on JSX are slated to start Oct. 2, 2025, to Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport and Miami Opa Locka Airport.
Palm Beach International Airport flights will start on Nov. 6, 2025.
Current fares range from $615 to $1,275 per seat, each way.
However, View From The Wing pointed out that the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey has restrictions on scheduled flights.
The website cited a July 2022 document from The Port Authority’s Aviation Department, which states:
‘Scheduled operations are excluded from Teterboro Airport. For purposes of this section, scheduled operation means any common passenger-carrying operation for compensation or hire conducted by an air carrier or commercial operator as to which the certificate holder or its representative holds out to the public that the operation is provided between identified locations at set times announced by a timetable or schedule which is published in a newspaper, magazine, internet website or other advertising medium.’
JSX operates as a public charter.
You can go to its website and book seats much the way you do with airlines like American Airlines or United Airlines.
However, View From The Wing noted that the new flights are only available to members of its new Club JSX loyalty program.
We contacted the Port Authority to inquire about their plans for allowing JSX flights.
A spokesperson confirms, “The Port Authority does not allow scheduled flights that are publicly advertised.”
She adds, “The Port Authority enforces strict Airport Rules & Regulations at TEB, including no public advertising of scheduled flights with all Fixed Base Operators.”
The spokesperson tells us, “JSX operates as a customer of Signature Aviation, not directly with the Port Authority.”
She continues:
‘JSX operates its flights under a membership or loyalty program, which is permitted under the applicable regulations. As long as JSX remains in full compliance with these rules and regulations—specifically by ensuring that flights are not publicly advertised and seat sales are limited exclusively to program members—JSX is authorized to operate without violating the prohibition on public solicitation.’
If you visit the JSX website and are not signed in as a Club JSX member, you will only see New York.
There’s no mention of Teterboro.
The JSX flights allow check-in up to 20 minutes before departure.
They use private terminals, enabling flyers to avoid big, congested airport terminals.
It was also tabbed by readers of Travel + Leisure as the Best U.S. Airline last month.
It was the second year in a row that it took top honors.
Perhaps, needless to say, JSX hasn’t issued a press release about the service.
A spokesperson also previously, perhaps not surprisingly, declined to comment after we reached out following View From The Wing breaking the news.
While JSX has proven popular with flyers, it hasn’t been as well-received by others.
The major airlines and their unions have been attempting to block it through regulators.
Back in January, after TSA said it was implementing new undisclosed security procedures, JSX said its flights wouldn’t be impacted.
At the time, a spokesperson told us, “JSX fully supports and cooperates with TSA in implementing security measures applicable to public charter flights. JSX is proud of its outstanding security record and has modeled an industry-leading approach to aviation security for nearly eight years, having voluntarily invested millions of dollars into its comprehensive security program since its inception.”
It will be interesting to see if JSX can be successful with the restrictions on marketing the new flights.
And if so, will others follow?
