Presidential lands Ronald Reagan airport approval
Following a newly obtained TSA approval, Presidential Aviation now offers private charter flights to KDCA for business travellers, leisure travellers and United States government employees.
Presidential Aviation has expanded its services to include Washington’s KDCA airport.

Fort Lauderdale's Presidential Aviation has expanded its northeastern private jet charter service to Washington DC by obtaining permission from both the TSA and FAA to land at Ronald Reagan National airport.

Due to heightened security levels, flights into KDCA are now required to give notice to both entities to land, and must be accompanied by an armed security officer. In addition, passengers flying into KDCA are required to arrive via a TSA approved gateway airport equipped with certified TSA screeners.

Ronald Reagan National airport is a key location for Presidential's business travellers in the northeast. The airport is strategically linked to the Washington, Virginia and Maryland markets via the Metrorail, with additional rail stations connecting business travellers to the New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania markets. The operator currently has aircraft strategically based in Teterboro, New Jersey and in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Due to the newly obtained TSA approval, Presidential Aviation now offers private charter flights to KDCA for business travellers, leisure travellers and United States government employees. The company is a GSA Federal Supply Schedule Contract Holder and a registered operator, providing private aviation transportation services to the US government and its officials.
