Hailey and San Francisco Private Jet Charter
Private Jet Charter between Hailey and San Francisco
Book a nonstop private jet charter flight from Hailey to San Francisco with the option to select your aircraft upon request.
Hailey is the gateway to Sun Valley, one of the most exclusive mountain destinations in the country, and its ties to the San Francisco Bay Area run deep. Bay Area technology and finance wealth has long been drawn to Sun Valley and Ketchum, for the skiing, the second homes, and the summer season in the Sawtooths, and the travel between the two regions reflects it. For anyone making that trip, a private jet charter replaces a day of airline connections with a short nonstop into the valley.
Friedman Memorial Airport sits just outside Hailey and about fourteen miles from Sun Valley, Friedman Memorial puts you near the slopes soon after you step off the aircraft. Being a single-runway mountain airport, it rewards the right aircraft and an experienced crew, particularly in winter weather.
At the San Francisco end, the choice of airport opens up, with several business-aviation fields spread across the Bay Area, each closer to a different part of the region.

Private Jets for Charter Flights between Hailey & San Francisco
Turboprops
A turboprop is well matched to Friedman Memorial, handling the altitude and the mountain approach with ease. Locally based turboprops run in and out of Sun Valley all season, so for two or three travelers it is a dependable, well-proven way to make the trip.
Light Jets
A light jet adds speed and a quieter, more spacious cabin, cutting the time to the Bay Area and giving a small group room to settle in. It suits two to four travelers comfortably, until the party or the ski bags call for the wider cabin of a midsize aircraft.
Midsize Jets
A midsize cabin is a comfortable middle ground for this route, with room to stand and settle in and baggage space for a group traveling with equipment for the season. It handles Friedman Memorial well and gives a family or a small team more room than a light jet on the way west.
Super Midsize Jets
A super-midsize jet brings a wider cabin, a larger galley, and the range to carry San Francisco onward as one leg of a longer trip. It suits a larger group, and it takes a full load of luggage and ski gear without anyone having to travel light.
Heavy Jets
A heavy jet offers a stand-up cabin and separate seating areas for a larger party traveling together. It is more aircraft than the short flight to San Francisco requires, but a comfortable choice for a group, or when Sun Valley is one stop on a wider itinerary.

Frequently Asked Questions
How close is Friedman Memorial to Sun Valley and Ketchum?
Very close. The airport sits just outside Hailey, about fourteen miles south of Sun Valley and Ketchum, so the drive from the aircraft to the resort or a valley home takes only a short time.
Which Bay Area airport is the best choice?
It depends on your destination. San Francisco International is closest to the city and takes any size of aircraft, though it can see fog delays. Oakland is often the more reliable and efficient option for the city and the East Bay, and San José Mineta is the natural fit for Silicon Valley and the South Bay. Palo Alto is popular for the venture-capital corridor, within the limits of its shorter runway. Your advisor can weigh these against your schedule.
Does weather affect flights into Sun Valley?
It can, since Friedman Memorial is a mountain airport with a single runway. Snow or low cloud occasionally causes delays, and Twin Falls, about ninety miles south, serves as a backup when conditions require it. Morning departures tend to be the most reliable in winter, and flying with an operator experienced at the airport helps keep things on schedule.
