Unfortunately, some of the most exclusive locales on the East Coast are among the most difficult to get to. Limited — or non-existent — commercial flights force travelers to choose between long drives in bumper-to-bumper traffic or hopping onto packed trains and buses. Wheels Up, a private-aviation company known for its engaging activations and easy-to-use app, is making it far easier to get to these summer destinations with the return of its Nantucket shuttle, along with several more seasonal routes.
Nantucket Shuttle Overview
On Thursday, July 21, Wheels Up will resume its Nantucket shuttle from New York City. The flight departs on Thursday mornings at 10 a.m. from Westchester airport and returns on Sunday afternoon at 4 p.m., making it the perfect way to reach this glamorous island for a long weekend getaway. Wheels Up members can reserve up to four seats aboard a King Air 350i. This aircraft accommodates eight passengers, so early planning is recommended.
Year-Round Routes to the Hamptons
Wheels Up also offers year-round routes to the Hamptons, operating private charter flights to East Hampton and Westhampton airports. The flight duration is under an hour from NYC, providing a more comfortable — and quieter — alternative to a helicopter trip.
Exclusive Member Events
Wheels Up takes its ethos as a members-only app seriously, with numerous events designed to create a sense of community. Moreover, it entices clients to travel to upscale events where they will receive exclusive access, such as the celebrity-filled golf tournament, The Match, and Fast Friday at the Indy 500. Furthermore, intimate local events in collaboration with its partners are also hosted. One of the most exclusive experiences is a sunset yacht cruise with partner Barton & Gray Mariners Club, available in various destinations, which can be scheduled by members on the Wheels Up website following a flight to a waterfront locale.
Nantucket Shuttle Schedule and Pricing
The Wheels Up Nantucket shuttle operates from Thursday, July 21, through Labor Day, with a special Monday departure on September 5. Seats start at $895 per person each way and can be booked individually.
