Flying from Aspen to Van Nuys is one of the classic late-summer private jet routes in the American West, linking Colorado's most celebrated mountain resort with the gateway to Los Angeles. As the peak Aspen season begins to mellow into early autumn, this empty leg suits travellers moving from alpine trails and fine dining in the Rockies towards the energy of the entertainment capital. The route pairs two distinctly different worlds of leisure, from the crisp air and dramatic scenery of the Elk Mountains to the sun-soaked sprawl of the San Fernando Valley, making it a favourite among charter clients each August.Flying from Aspen to Van Nuys is one of the classic late-summer private jet routes in the American West, linking Colorado's most celebrated mountain resort with the gateway to Los Angeles.
