About football’s showpiece

A winner-takes-all final has crowned the NFL champion every season since 1966, rotating to a new venue each year. ‘The big game’ returns to Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara on February 8, 2026 – with ten years having passed since it last hosted. Nestled in the heart of Silicon Valley and seating over 68,000 fans, Levi’s Stadium blends state-of-the-art facilities with eco-friendly design, from its solar-paneled roof to reclaimed-water landscaping. It’ll also serve as a soccer world cup venue later in 2026, cementing its status as a global sporting landmark.

While millions tune in for the on-field drama, the halftime show has become equally legendary. From collegiate marching bands to today’s top recording artists, the production now rivals Broadway in scale. The league’s halftime committee have continued their promise to treat audiences to a high-production headline act, with 2026’s extravagant installment provided by Guns N’ Roses.

How to get to Santa Clara by private jet

Four airports in the Bay Area offer private-jet service within a 40-minute drive of Levi’s Stadium:

  • Hayward Executive Airport (HWD) – 40 minutes away (this is the only private-use field in the Bay Area)
  • San Jose International (SJC) – 10 minutes away
  • San Francisco International (SFO) – 35 minutes away
  • Oakland International (OAK) – 40 minutes away

Whether you need a swift hop into San Jose’s FBO or the global connectivity of SFO, each of these options ensure you touch down stress-free and arrive at Levi’s Stadium ready for kick-off.

Popular private jets to charter in the USA

North America has the world’s biggest private jet market, so there are plenty of private jets to choose from, wherever you’re traveling. But out of the 9,000 taking off every day, there are some particularly popular private jets our clients regularly prefer to charter.

Bombardier Learjet 60

With its impressive fuel efficiency and use of NASA technology, the Bombardier Learjet 60 is one of the most competitively-priced midsize private jets to charter. But it’s not just the price that makes this jet so sought-after. Able to accommodate up to seven passengers (eight if the enclosed lavatory is used as an extra seat), the Learjet 60’s spacious cabin is ideal for both work and relaxation.

Beechcraft King Air 200

Part of the most popular family of turboprops ever created, the Beechcraft King Air 200 excels in all regions and environments thanks to its versatility and robust airframe. Despite its perception as a rugged “go anywhere, go anytime” aircraft, its cabin is extremely comfortable and spacious for a turboprop. The King Air 200 typically seats up to seven passengers and is frequently used for short hops.

Cessna Citation X

With a top speed of Mach 0.9, it’s little wonder the Cessna Citation X is one of the USA’s favorite private jets to charter. The eight-seat cabin is typically laid out with two club suites separated by fold-away tables for working and dining, while the heated and pressurized baggage compartment helps protect cargo regardless of external weather conditions.

Gulfstream IV

Gulfstream has long been a trusted name in the private jet industry and the Gulfstream IV (also known as the G-IV or GIV) is one of the brand’s most popular aircraft. With a range of around 4,500 miles and a baggage compartment large enough for 19 suitcases, the G-IV is often chartered by large groups flying across the USA.

Hawker 800XP

While the Hawker 800XP doesn’t have one stand-out feature compared to its competitors, its popularity stems from its ability to strike a balance between cost-efficiency, availability, fuel economy, climb and cruise performance, interior comfort and takeoff distance. The aircraft’s cabin can appear in a variety of layouts, but the most common configurations seat up to eight people with a three-seat divan in the rear. Similar aircraft in this Hawker family include the popular Hawker 800XPI, Hawker 850XP and Hawker 900XP.

Remember – time is of the essence:

In 2025, New Orleans’ major airports struggled to accommodate both the control tower slots and the parking space required for the jets attending the game. We expect the same, if not greater demand for jet arrangements for the next installment – stay ahead of the game and guarantee your place at the biggest sporting event of the year.
