Have you been cooped up for weeks and weeks? Need a quick get-away? Thanksgiving is the time to do it. Destinations all over Florida offer unique and exciting ways to be thankful on this essential American holiday. Noble Air gets you there – FAST!

Saint Augustine – Founded in 1565, St. Augustine is the oldest and longest continually inhabited city in America, full of history and heritage. But that’s not all there is for visitors to see and experience in this coastal Florida city. Saint Augustine is a favorite among tourists for its clean and peaceful beaches, many restaurants and shops, and – of course – Ponce de Leon’s Fountain of Youth!

Delray Beach – Art-lovers, this is for you! The Annual Downtown Delray Beach Thanksgiving Weekend Art Festival is great for browsing colorful pieces of art made by local artists. With smaller crowds of tourists in November, you can enjoy beautiful beaches or a day of surfing, kayaking, sailing or snorkeling. For a dose of culture, head to Morikami Museum & Japanese Gardens to discover serene landscapes and beautifully manicured gardens.

Amelia Island – Far from the overcrowding at other tourist spots in Florida, Amelia Island and nearby Fernandina Beach are a quiet slice of paradise with over 13 miles of beautiful coastline. Lined with historic Victorian mansions and quaint bed and breakfast accommodations, this barrier island is located just off the coast of northeast Florida. Comb the beach for colorful seashells, pop in for a drink at the longest operating saloon in Florida or browse the boutique shops and local seafood restaurants.

Pensacola – One of the prettiest beaches in Florida’s Panhandle, Pensacola Beach features postcard-worthy views along its shoreline. Perfect for a sunny Thanksgiving afternoon, dig your toes into the white sand and admire the emerald waters. Explore underwater aquatic life with a day of snorkeling and stroll along the Pensacola Beach Pier to indulge in fresh seafood and colorful sunset views.

Mount Dora – One of Florida’s most beloved weekend destinations, Mount Dora is a charming lakefront town in Central Florida. Soak in the quaint ambiance and admire its 19th-century clapboard houses, antique shops and outdoor cafes. Thanksgiving is a perfect time to go on a fishing excursion, sample some of the local cuisine or sit back with a glass of vino at The Cellar Door winery. If you’re traveling with the kids, take them to Scott’s Maze Adventures for fall-related fun like hayrides and a corn maze.

No passport? No problem! You don’t need a passport to travel to the exotic Caribbean islands of St Thomas, St Croix, and St John. These three islands – known collectively as the US Virgin Islands – are an American commonwealth, and therefore domestic travel for US citizens.

St Thomas – Enjoy plenty of duty-free shopping, spectacular diving, and world-class dining in this Caribbean Paradise. The island’s world-renowned golf course, picture-perfect beaches, and spectacular nightlife will take your breath away. Thrill to the Skyride 700 feet above the city or climb the famous 99 Steps of Charlotte Amalie for an incomparable view of the sea. And if you like culture and history, don’t miss seeing the second-oldest synagogue in the Western Hemisphere, the 1680-built Fort Christian, or the childhood home of French Impressionist, Camille Pissarro.

St Croix – St. Croix delights the senses with gorgeous beaches, world-class recreational activities, fine dining, casino, and golf. Although only 22.7 miles long and 8 miles at its widest point, the landscape of St. Croix is surprisingly diverse. Visiting its two main cities will give you a glimpse of the island’s incredible history-from regal 18th and 19th-century homes in Christiansted to a tropical rain forest in Frederiksted.

St John – Come for unspoiled beauty. The smallest of the islands, St. John offers visitors pristine splendor amid modern luxuries. Originally settled by the Arawak and Carib Indians, the island has a history as rich as its landscape. The United States purchased St. John from the Danish West India and Guinea Company in 1917. In 1956, over 5,000 acres of the island was donated to the National Park Service. With two-thirds of the island designated as a park, St. John has some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, like the much-beloved Trunk Bay, renowned for its crystal sands and underwater nature trail.

Beautiful Boca Grande on Gasparilla Island, is the home of white sugar-sand beaches, swaying palm trees, and privacy for its elite residents. Few automobiles sully Boca Grande’s pristine roads – they are allowed on only two streets. Golf carts are the primary mode of transportation.

Boca Grande has a long and storied history, starting with the Native American Calusa people who lived there 5000 years ago, right up through the pirate rum smuggler José Gaspar who gave the island its name. Today the tropical beauty of Gasparilla Island is the ideal backdrop for films like Denzel Washington’s Out of Time and celebrity weddings.

And of course, tarpon fishing in Boca Grande.

You could get to this island paradise by commercial flight, but the closest airport is in Coral Creek – an hour away. And another hour to get back there later. Or, you could do what knowledgeable fishermen and adventure-seekers do…

The fishing paradise known as the Florida Keys is surrounded by reefs that make perfect hiding places for Yellowtail Snapper and juvenile baitfish. When the seas are calm and the water is warm, as it is right now in September, Yellowtail are biting at the edge of the reef in 50 – 70 feet of water.

Sounds perfect, huh?

When you want to take the family fishing, that’s exactly what you want to do. Fish. Not drive.

Flying is Better Than Driving

If you were to drive 3.5 hours from Miami to Key West – and back again, most of the conversation from the rear seat would go something like this…

• “Are we there yet?”
• “Are we almost there?”
• “When are we gonna get there?”

Noble Air Charter has the cure for that back-seat chatter

Pack your fishing gear and charter a flight. We will whisk you to Key West at the tip of Florida, Exuma in the Bahamas, or any other favorite fishing destination before you know it. You’ll spend more time doing what you really want to do – fish – because our right-sized aircraft can land super close to your ultimate destination.

And if you are wondering what great new equipment will help you do battle with those wily golden-striped fish, check out the Yellowtail episode of the Florida Insider Fishing Report…

Even better than the average private charter card, it’s the Noble Air Premier Charter Card.

Ever since December 17, 1903 when the Wright brothers changed modern history with the first powered flights at Kittyhawk, inventive thinkers and engineers have striven to create an aircraft propulsion system that is stronger, faster, and quieter than anything that came before.

The first turboprop engine was patented in 1929 by György Jendrassik, a Hungarian physicist and engineer. However, it wasn’t until after WWII that the aviation world became really interested in using turboprop engines to power aircraft.

Turboprops use the power of a gas turbine to drive the propeller and generate thrust. By taking advantage of the aerodynamic propulsion produced by the propeller, turboprops can outperform jet engines in terms of efficiency at speeds slower than 400 knots. And although turboprops generally have lower service ceilings compared to jets, they also burn less fuel per passenger for the same amount of flying time, making them a more cost-effective solution for shorter flights.

Modern turboprops also have a level of versatility that’s unmatched by light jet aircraft. Turboprops offer impressive short take-off and landing capabilities, enabling pilots and passengers to access remote locations around the world.

Turboprops at Noble Air Charter

With nearly 100 years of aviation experience, Cessna turboprops are Noble Air’s favorite aircraft to fly to Florida and the Bahamas. Sleek, reliable, safe, and spacious, you’ll arrive at your destination on time and in style. Have a look at our beautiful Cessna Turboprops.

And, by the way…travel to the Bahamas is still permitted, if you fly charter and follow entry guidelines. Great dining, shopping, casinos, and adventures are waiting for you on the beaches of Nassau and beyond.

If you’ve never flown charter before, you’re in for a treat. Noble Air Charter treats you like royalty from the very first minute you board your Cessna Turboprop until the very last moment when you – sadly – return home. But, hey! When you’re ready for another trip to the Bahamas, we’ll be ready for you.

Why leave one beautiful, tropical Florida city to fly to another one? Why, to play golf at the world-famous TPC Sawgrass Golf Course – one of the top public golf courses in Florida.

Home of The Players Championship, birthplace of the TPC Network, and backdrop to the PGA Tour headquarters, the TPC Sawgrass Golf Course may be among the world’s most challenging courses. Designed by Pete Dye, its notorious par-3, 17th hole features an island green, which makes or breaks many a PGA Tour Pro’s round.

Choose the Players Stadium Course or Dye’s Valley Course. Need some confidence before you tee up? TPC Sawgrass offers individual instruction too.

When you’re ready to go, call your friends, pack your clubs, and book your tee time. Then contact Noble Air – we will get you there right on time, and back in time for dinner. Or decide at the last minute to stay longer to dine at Nineteen at TPC Sawgrass, and we will wait for you. The choice is yours.

Noble Air Charter for Your Golf Getaway

Do you really want to drive 350 miles from Miami to Ponte Vedra Beach, and back again, when Noble Air can get you there in an hour and a half?

Flying is half the fun when you escape to TPC Sawgrass or one of Florida’s other great golf courses, like the Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort in Florida’s northern panhandle. Four courses, 72 holes, and unrivalled natural beauty at the Sandestin as well as high praise from Golf Digest, Golf Magazine, and Golf for Women.

World Golf Village in St Augustine offers two fabulous courses

1. King & Bear – the only golf course in the world designed by Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus.

2. Slammer & Squire – a rewarding public course that emphasizes your short game. Slammer & Squire was created by golf greats Bobby Weed, Sam Snead, and Gene Sarazen.

“More than anything else, the sensation of flying is one of perfect peace mingled with an excitement that strains every nerve to the utmost — if you can conceive of such a combination.” Wilbur Wright

Perfect peace and excitement…how could you not want those feelings for yourself? You can have all that and more, the first time and every time, you charter a flight with Noble Air.

If you have grown tired of arriving at the airport two hours early for a commercial flight, standing in line – shoeless – to be checked in, herded like cattle into an uncomfortable seat and served stale peanuts and canned soda pop as a refreshment, you can say goodbye to all that forever.

Your first charter flight will be an eye-opener. You will discover comfort, convenience and the perfect peace of unparalleled customer service along with the excitement of the limitless blue heavens.

Think of your charter flight as a personal concierge service.

Deluxe surroundings, the foods and beverages you have chosen, the freedom to move around the aircraft and sit where you get the best view are all yours with chartered air travel.

Your pilots and flight crew are there for your safety, but they are also your hosts. You are welcome to chat with the pilots after the aircraft has reached cruising speeds.

Most folks are so pleased by the catering, the courteous service and the proximity of the airport to their actual destination that they want to tip the pilots and crew. While it is not expected, it is certainly appreciated.

So, how much should you tip?

• Ground services – If your exceptional driver gave you extra special help, $20 – $50 might be appropriate.
• Line crew – They help to load and unload your baggage, ensure the aircraft is properly fueled and that your catering order gets onboard. $20 per line crew member is a classy tip.
• Cabin attendants – Cabin and flight attendants ensure your safety and attend to hospitality during your flight. They are not salaried employees, they are typically paid a daily rate. $100 tip per flight attendant is a good starting point.
• Pilots – There is no expectation to tip a pilot, as they are salaried employees. On smaller aircraft, though, the pilot sometimes acts as a cabin host after the aircraft has reached cruise speed. Tipping your pilots $50 or more – up to 5% – 10% of the charter price – will show your appreciation for all of their skill and effort.

Eventually, you will have to come back home. When booking your return flight, you can ask for the aircraft to remain on the ground, thus maximizing your ability to leave early without waiting for another flight to depart first.

What are you waiting for? Book your first exciting charter flight to the destination of your dreams with Noble Air Charter.

Have you ever driven to Opa-Locka Executive Airport and wondered, “Where did that unusual name come from?”

If you’re like many people around Miami, you might have thought the name had something to do with opening a lock, judging by the sound of it.

Turns out, there’s a really interesting story behind it.

Aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss retired from aircraft development and manufacturing in the 1920s and became a real estate developer in Florida. In 1926, he founded the city of Opa-Locka, naming it Opa-tisha-woka-locka (quickly shortened to Opa-Locka), a Native American name that translates into the high land north of the little river with a camping place.

In fact, the ‘camping place’ has grown up and been involved with both military operations and private flights since day one.

As recently as the year ending May 24, 2017 the airport had 147,638 operations, an average of 404 per day…

Today, Noble Air Charter, with its fleet of turbo-props and jets at Opa-Locka Executive Airport, offers private chartered flights to Florida, the Bahamas and beyond.
