What to expect at ADS.
A dedicated business-aviation field with no airline traffic: no holds, no flow control, no airline wake. For Preston Hollow, Plano, Frisco and Legacy West, Addison routinely beats Love Field door-to-door. The 7,203-ft runway handles Gulfstream-class aircraft on domestic legs; maximum-weight intercontinental departures occasionally step over to DFW or Alliance.
FBOs and handling
On-field FBOs include Atlantic Aviation, Galaxy FBO, and Million Air. Arrive fifteen to twenty minutes before wheels-up: your car pulls planeside or to a private lounge, luggage goes straight to the hold and there is no security line. International departures add customs formalities — plan 30–45 minutes.
Which jets can operate from ADS
With 7,203 ft of pavement, Addison Airport takes every aircraft class we fly — light and midsize jets anywhere on the board, and heavy cabins (which typically want ~6,000 ft or more) comfortably, Gulfstream G450 and Global 6000 included. All 8 aircraft in our Dallas fleet operate here.
