Austin and Midland Private Jet Charter
Private Jet Charter between Austin and Midland
Book a nonstop private jet charter flight from Austin to Midland with the option to select your aircraft upon request.
Austin and Midland are connected by the business of Texas energy. Austin brings the state government, the regulatory offices that oversee the oil and gas industry, and a fast-growing base of corporate and technology firms; Midland sits at the operational center of the Permian Basin. Executives, energy teams, and government and corporate travelers move between the two regularly, often on schedules that do not line up with the limited commercial service on the route. Private jet charter gives them more control over when and where they fly.
The drive between the two cities runs more than six hours across West Texas, which is why so much of this travel goes by air. A private charter covers the distance in a little over an hour, letting a team reach the oilfield for the day and be back in Austin by evening. Both cities keep Central time, so the schedule stays simple at each end.
Airport choice adds to the appeal. Austin has a dedicated business-aviation field away from the commercial terminal, and Midland offers a close-in general-aviation airport minutes from downtown, so travelers can begin and end the trip near where they actually need to be.

Private Jets for Charter Flights between Austin & Midland
Turboprops
Turboprops can be a practical option on a route this short, particularly for a small group traveling with cost in mind. They operate comfortably into the smaller fields around both cities and lose little to a jet on a leg this short.
Light Jets
For two or three travelers, a light jet covers the run quickly and keeps charter costs lower than the larger cabins. It is a common choice for a compact team heading out to the basin for the day and back.
Midsize Jets
Midsize jets add cabin room and baggage capacity, with space to stand, work, or hold a conversation on the way. They suit a larger group, or travelers carrying equipment or materials for more than a single day in Midland.
Super Midsize Jets
Super-midsize jets offer a wider cabin, a larger galley, and more room to settle in or spread out. They are a good fit for a bigger group, or for travelers who would rather treat the short flight as productive time, and they carry the range to continue on to another energy city without changing aircraft.
Heavy Jets
Heavy jets provide larger stand-up cabins, separate seating areas, and additional space for larger groups. They are bigger aircraft than the Austin–Midland leg alone requires, but worth considering when a sizable team travels together or the trip forms part of a longer itinerary.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Austin airport is best for a private charter?
Most private travelers use Austin Executive (EDC), northeast of the city, which is dedicated to business aviation and avoids the commercial traffic at the main terminal. Austin-Bergstrom International (AUS) is also available and sits closer to downtown, with private facilities alongside the airline operation. Your advisor can suggest the better fit for your schedule and where your day begins.
Where will I land in Midland?
That depends on the aircraft and your ground plans. Midland Airpark (MDD) sits about three miles from downtown and is the convenient close-in option for smaller jets. Midland International Air and Space Port (MAF) handles every size of aircraft, with a full-service FBO and on-site customs for international itineraries. We can recommend the right one based on your aircraft and where you are headed.
How much time does flying private save over driving?
A great deal on this route. What is a full day behind the wheel each way becomes a flight of roughly an hour and fifteen minutes, which makes a round trip to the Permian Basin realistic within a single working day. For most travelers, saving is the whole reason to fly rather than drive.
