Palm Beach to Nassau is a 320 km hop across the Gulf Stream, about 47 minutes on a light jet. It is the shortest way from Palm Beach island to the Bahamas' capital, Paradise Island and the onward airstrips of the Out Islands. Both airports have long runways, so any business jet can fly it; for most parties a light jet or a turboprop is plenty. The Palm Beach airport was renamed in 2026 and now carries the codes DJT / KDJT; it is the former Palm Beach International (PBI).

| June to November | Atlantic hurricane season. | Keep dates flexible; the operator decides on weather. |
