Name: United States Grand Prix
Start: 23–25 October 2026

Formula 1’s biggest US weekend — the Circuit of the Americas outside Austin, equal parts racing and music festival, and one of the densest private-jet weekends in North America. Austin-Bergstrom (KAUS) is the main gateway; Austin Executive (KEDC) handles the business-jet overflow.

Getting in · the part nobody tells you

Two Austin fields, and an overflow plan for race week

Austin-Bergstrom handles the volume but caps business-jet slots on race weekend; Austin Executive and San Marcos take the overflow. Knowing which to file for is the whole game.

LAND HERE Where you actually land

KAUSAustin-Bergstrom — the main airport, ~20 min from COTA; business-jet slots are reservation-controlled on race weekend.
KEDCAustin Executive — the business-aviation overflow field northeast of the city with a full FBO.
KHYISan Marcos — secondary overflow ~35 min south, used when Austin fills.

WATCH OUT What catches people out

SLOT RESERVATIONSAustin-Bergstrom runs a reservation system for business jets on Grand Prix weekend — no reservation, no slot.
RAMP FILLS EARLYParking across all three fields goes weeks ahead; many aircraft drop and reposition to Dallas or Houston.
COTA TRAFFICThe circuit sits southeast of the city on a two-lane approach — race-day road traffic is heavy; helicopter shuttles run from the fields.

Chauffeur from KAUS~20–40 min US$150–300Straightforward off-race-day; slow on Sunday.

Plan it like this

Beating the COTA crawl

Land an Austin field, switch to a race-week helicopter shuttle, and you are at the circuit in eight minutes while the highway backs up.

1 · Reserved slot into KAUS / KEDC
2 · FBO, then helicopter shuttle
3 · COTA landing site, minutes from the paddock

What it costs

Empty leg vs full charter, plus the transfer

Domestic legs into Austin price like any US charter; the value is on the post-race repositioning legs heading back to the coasts.

Route → gateway	Empty leg	Full charter	Per person ÷6
New York → AustinKTEB → KAUS	US$11,000–18,000	US$24,000–34,000	US$1,800–3,200
Dallas → AustinKDAL → KAUS	US$3,500–6,000	US$8,000–12,000	US$580–1,000

Sanity-check any "deal" against the benchmark: Light jet US$3,500–5,000/hr · super-mid US$6,000–9,000/hr · the Dallas hop is under an hour.
Add the transfer: Add a helicopter shuttle or chauffeur; COTA is ~20–40 min from Austin-Bergstrom.

Questions · United States Grand Prix specifics

Good to know before you book

Which Austin airport should I use?

Austin-Bergstrom (KAUS) is closest to COTA but runs a race-week reservation system for business jets. Austin Executive (KEDC) and San Marcos (KHYI) take the overflow.

How do I avoid the race-day traffic?

Helicopter shuttles run from the Austin fields onto a COTA landing site in about eight minutes — far faster than the two-lane road approach on Sunday.

Are there empty legs after the race?

Yes — the strongest value is on the Sunday-night and Monday repositioning legs back to the coasts. Set a route alert to catch one.
