# Atlanta and Knoxville Private Jet Charter

## Private Jet Charter between Atlanta and Knoxville

On paper, the drive from Atlanta to Knoxville on I-75 takes three and a half hours. In reality, however, it begins with the “Downtown Connector” section, slows down again near Chattanooga, and on a Saturday in the fall, when college football games are in session, it can take almost the entire day. The flight departs from Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, the busiest in the country, and takes less than an hour.

A charter flight on a private jet between Atlanta and Knoxville lets you avoid all these inconveniences. You’ll depart from DeKalb-Peachtree or Fulton County Airport, both located near the Buckhead and Midtown neighborhoods, and arrive in East Tennessee in just 45 minutes. That leaves you with the entire afternoon to go hiking in the mountains, attend a business meeting, or catch a game.

PrivateJet.com arranges private jet charter flights between Atlanta and Knoxville for Tennessee Volunteers fans, families with vacation homes in the Great Smoky Mountains, guests at Blackberry Farm, and business travelers heading to Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Just let us know the date, and we’ll take care of the rest.

## What Does a Private Jet Charter between Atlanta and Knoxville Cost?

Here are the average one-way charter prices for a private jet between Atlanta and Knoxville:

1. Piston: $2,500 – $3,000;
2. Turboprops: $4,500 – $5,000;
3. Light Jets: $8,000 – $8,500;
4. Midsize Jets: $11,000 – $12,000;
5. Super Midsize Jets: $14,000 – $15,500;
6. Heavy Jets: $21,000 – $23,000.

The final price may vary. Atlanta is one of the largest private aviation markets in the Southeast, so there’s almost always an aircraft nearby, and the cost of moving an aircraft remains low. The schedule plays a bigger role: on weekends when the Tennessee Titans play home games, McGee-Tyson Airport fills up with private jets, you have to reserve spots on the tarmac, and prices go up. The rest of the cost consists of a daily minimum flight time, landing fees, and the choice between a same-day round trip or an overnight stay.

## Flight Time between Atlanta and Knoxville

The flight duration for a nonstop private jet from Atlanta to Knoxville ranges from 50 minutes to 1 hour and 25 minutes. Flight time can vary depending on your chosen aircraft and the weather conditions on the day of your departure.

### Frequently Asked Questions

#### Is it possible to fly to a soccer game in Tennessee and return to Atlanta the same day?

Yes. Book your tickets as soon as the schedule is released, since spots at the McGee-Tyson Airport apron fill up quickly on weekends when home games are played. During the game, the plane will wait at the FBO, and you’ll be back in Atlanta less than an hour after takeoff. For a small group, a turboprop flight to Downtown Island Airport will get you even closer to campus.

#### Which airport is closest to the Great Smoky Mountains?

The closest is the Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge Airport in Sevierville, located just a few minutes’ drive from Pigeon Forge and the cabins around Gatlinburg. McGee-Tyson Airport accommodates larger aircraft and is located about a 45-minute drive from Pigeon Forge, while “Blackberry Farm” in Walland is nearby.

#### Is a private flight faster than a commercial flight from Hartsfield-Jackson Airport?

The flight time is about the same, but the time spent on the ground is not. At DeKalb-Pechtre or Fulton County airports, you arrive 15 minutes before departure and walk to the plane. At Hartsfield-Jackson, you have to factor in time for traffic, parking, and going through security before a flight that lasts less than an hour, and you land at the same airport in Knoxville.
