This empty leg charter connects Newport News on Virginia's Chesapeake coast with Van Nuys in the heart of Los Angeles's San Fernando Valley, spanning almost the entire width of the United States in a single private jet journey. As autumn settles across the East Coast, this transcontinental route offers a swift escape from cooling Virginia skies to the enduring warmth of Southern California. Newport News/Williamsburg International sits close to Hampton Roads' shipping and defence industries, while Van Nuys Airport ranks among the busiest general aviation hubs in the country, placing travellers minutes from Los Angeles, Malibu, and the entertainment districts of Hollywood and Burbank. Few routes pair such contrasting coastlines with this level of convenience and speed.This empty leg charter connects Newport News on Virginia's Chesapeake coast with Van Nuys in the heart of Los Angeles's San Fernando Valley, spanning almost the entire width of the United States in a single private jet journey.
