Los Cabos is roughly 2,000 miles from Miami, a flight of about four and a half hours across the Gulf of Mexico and the Mexican mainland. Travelers come for the Pacific-meets-Sea-of-Cortez coastline, top-tier resorts like Las Ventanas and One&Only Palmilla, world-class sport fishing and winter whale watching.
A super-midsize jet such as the Challenger 300 or Citation X flies the route nonstop with room for golf bags and resort luggage. Light jets would need a fuel stop, so they are rarely the best value here unless you plan a stopover in Texas.
Miami International (MIA) is well suited for this international departure, with FBOs experienced in Mexican paperwork. Opa-Locka (OPF) and Fort Lauderdale (FLL) are also common, so choose whichever is closest to home.
Los Cabos International (SJD) has a dedicated FBO terminal where Mexican immigration and customs are processed privately, and visitors complete the electronic entry form. Your operator handles Mexican overflight permits and aircraft insurance. Cabo San Lucas' own airport (CSL) is an option for smaller aircraft closer to the marina.
November through April is peak season, with dry weather and whales offshore from January to March. The Bisbee's Black & Blue tournament in October draws a crowd of anglers, while late summer is hot and the region's main hurricane window.
