    Why Private

    What makes this route different.

    01
    End-to-end international compliance

    AFAC flight plan, eAPIS, CBP processing on arrival and FBO coordination on both sides. You just show your passport.

    02
    Hobby (KHOU), not IAH

    Hobby's FBOs are 20–25 minutes from the Texas Medical Center, downtown and the Galleria. IAH adds 45 minutes of traffic.

    03
    The reference medical route

    MD Anderson, Houston Methodist and the Texas Medical Center. We coordinate arrivals with direct transport and absolute discretion.

    04
    There and back in one day

    Take off at 07:00, meeting or consultation at midday, back in Mexico City for dinner. No connections, no nights away.

    Cost

    What determines the cost of a Toluca → Houston charter?

    The shortest international leg we run into the United States, which makes it the best candidate for a same-day round trip. International handling is included in the price; what it adds is planning time, not money.

    01
    Aircraft category

    The single biggest driver. The right categories for this leg are light and midsize jets: the gap between them isn't only cabin size but speed, baggage volume and range. A light and a midsize jet on the same route can differ by 60% in price.

    02
    Distance and block time

    The leg runs ≈ 1,220 km with a typical 2h 00m in the air. Charter is priced on occupied flight hours, and daily utilization minimums plus crew duty limits still apply even on a short hop.

    03
    One way vs round trip

    A round trip that keeps the aircraft with you usually prices better per hour than two one-ways. A one-way Toluca → Houston may mean the aircraft flies home empty, and that leg shows up in the rate.

    04
    Positioning (ferry)

    The movement of the aircraft before pickup or after drop-off. If the right aircraft isn't based in Toluca, or is committed elsewhere after landing in Houston, that repositioning enters the cost. It's exactly why empty legs exist: someone already paid for that leg.

    05
    Season and demand

    Availability rules price. Through Texas Medical Center consultation seasons and quarter close the fleet commits weeks ahead and the rate stops being negotiable. Firm dates booked early widen your aircraft options.

    06
    Handling, FBO and fees

    Landing, ramp, FBO handling, catering and crew overnight where applicable. Small next to the flight hour, but they vary by airport and are always itemized in the quote — nothing appears afterward.

    07
    International handling

    Border crossing: customs clearance outbound and inbound, eAPIS filing, overflight permits and passenger document checks. The operator handles it and it's built into the quote; the real impact is planning time, not money.

    The Mexico–Texas executive bridge

    Houston is the most frequent international destination of Mexican executive aviation: energy, banking, medicine and trade move flights every day of the week. By private jet, the trip from Toluca (MMTO) takes about 2 hours nonstop, versus the 5–6 real hours a commercial flight consumes door to door between international check-in, immigration and lines.

    Our service includes full international handling: AFAC flight plan and departure in Toluca, eAPIS manifests for CBP, and immigration processing on arrival directly at the FBO — without setting foot in a commercial terminal at any point.

    Hobby (KHOU): the right arrival in Houston

    We recommend William P. Hobby (KHOU) over the intercontinental airport (KIAH) for almost every mission: its executive FBOs — Million Air, Signature, Wilson Air, among others; we work with all of them — have on-site CBP for international processing in minutes, and it sits 20–25 minutes from the Texas Medical Center, downtown and the Galleria area. We coordinate your ground transport directly to the platform so time on the ground is minimal.

    Medical flights: discretion and logistics

    A significant share of our Houston flights have a medical purpose: treatments and consultations at MD Anderson, Houston Methodist or the Texas Medical Center. We coordinate schedules around appointments, direct ground transport, medical luggage and companions, with total discretion. If the patient requires specialized assistance on board, our air ambulance division offers medically equipped aircraft with certified flight personnel.

    Paperwork for flying to the United States

    For private flights to the U.S., every passenger needs a valid passport and a U.S. visa (or ESTA depending on nationality). We transmit the eAPIS manifest to CBP, manage overflight and landing permits, and verify documentation before departure so there are no surprises. Immigration processing on arrival happens at the FBO itself in a matter of minutes.

    FAQ

    A one-way on a Learjet 35 (up to 6–7 passengers) starts at 14,500 USD + tax; on a Hawker 800A (up to 9 passengers) from 16,300 USD + tax. Prices are estimates subject to availability; we deliver a fully itemized quote in under 30 minutes.

    About 2 hours nonstop. Door to door, the saving versus a commercial international flight is 3 to 4 hours each way.
    What documents do I need to fly privately to Houston?
    A valid passport and U.S. visa (or ESTA depending on your nationality). We handle eAPIS, overflight permits and CBP coordination; you just present your documents when boarding.
    Which Houston airport does the flight arrive at?
    We recommend William P. Hobby (KHOU), whose FBOs have on-site CBP processing and sit 20–25 minutes from the Texas Medical Center, downtown and the Galleria. KIAH is available if your agenda requires it.
    Do you handle medical flights to Houston?
    Yes, it's one of our specialties: we coordinate schedules around appointments at MD Anderson or Houston Methodist, direct transport and companions. For patients requiring assistance on board we offer dedicated air ambulance service.

    Yes. With a 07:00 departure you can have 4–5 hours in Houston and be back in the Valley of Mexico the same night. The aircraft waits at the FBO during your agenda.
