Private Jet Charter
from Nashville
Depart Music City on your schedule. From John C. Tune, BNA, Smyrna and Lebanon, Chronos Air Group arranges seamless private jet charter for music, healthcare, sports, finance and leisure travel across the US and internationally.
Music City,
On Your Schedule
Nashville has emerged as one of the fastest-growing private aviation markets in the country, driven by the depth of the music industry, the dominance of HCA and the healthcare sector, the Titans and Predators ownership groups, and a steady stream of relocations from California and New York into Brentwood, Belle Meade, Franklin and Leiper's Fork. Whether you are departing for Los Angeles, New York, Aspen or an international crossing, Chronos Air Group provides access to the right aircraft, the right crew, and the right terminal.
As a Hightail Air Charter LLC operation, every Nashville departure is managed around your schedule. John C. Tune (JWN) is our preferred terminal for nearly every client, a dedicated general aviation facility on the west side with no commercial traffic, multiple FBOs, and direct access to Belle Meade, Green Hills and downtown. BNA is used selectively for heavy international departures.

Nashville Private Jet Airports
The greater Nashville area offers four private aviation terminals. We advise on the best departure point based on your location, aircraft type, and destination.
The Primary Nashville Private Aviation Hub
John C. Tune is the dedicated general aviation reliever for Nashville and the preferred departure point for nearly every private jet client in the city. No commercial traffic, full-service FBO operations, and direct access to Belle Meade, Green Hills, West End and downtown Nashville. The standard choice for music industry, healthcare and family office departures.
Selective for Heavy & International Departures
Nashville International is used selectively for heavy and ultra long range departures requiring the longer runway and widebody handling that BNA provides. Signature Flight Support and Atlantic Aviation operate the FBOs at BNA. Best suited to transatlantic and group charter missions, rather than routine private departures.
Southeast Suburbs & Murfreesboro Corridor
Smyrna Airport serves the southeastern Nashville suburbs, including Brentwood, Franklin, Smyrna and Murfreesboro. A full-service general aviation facility with no commercial traffic and shorter ground times than BNA. The natural alternative for clients south of the city or in the Williamson County corridor.
Eastern Suburbs & Cumberland Corridor
Lebanon Municipal serves the eastern Nashville metro, including Mt. Juliet, Lebanon and the Cumberland corridor. A quiet general aviation facility well positioned for clients on the east side who want to avoid the drive into the city or to JWN. Standard handling for light and midsize jet operations.
