Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How are customs and immigration handled when flying private to Mexico?
The process is remarkably simple. Upon arrival at the private FBO terminal in Los Cabos (MMSD), you will be escorted to a private lounge where a dedicated customs and immigration officer will process your passports. The entire procedure typically takes just a few minutes, avoiding all commercial lines.
2. What is the best aircraft for bringing golf clubs or fishing gear?
For travelers with oversized luggage like golf bags or fishing equipment, a Midsize Jet is the highly recommended choice. It offers a significantly larger and more accessible luggage compartment compared to a Light Jet, ensuring all your gear travels safely with you.
3. Can you arrange for transportation from the airport to my resort in Pedregal or Palmilla?
Absolutely. Coordinating seamless ground transportation is a core part of our service. We can arrange for your pre-stocked luxury SUV or private shuttle to be waiting for you on the tarmac the moment you clear customs.
4. How far in advance should I book for peak season, like the holidays or spring break?
Cabo is a premier destination, and aircraft availability becomes very limited during peak seasons (November-April, especially Christmas and New Year’s). We strongly recommend booking at least 4-6 weeks in advance to secure the best aircraft at the most competitive rates.
