Jet Center Los Angeles

Jet Center Los Angeles is the premier FBO at Hawthorne Municipal Airport, the closest general aviation airport to SoFi Stadium, the Los Angeles Forum, Manhattan Beach, and most of West Los Angeles. The airport sits at 12010 Crenshaw Boulevard in Hawthorne, just off the 405 and 105 freeways, with a single 4,884-foot runway that limits operations to smaller aircraft but eliminates the congestion of LAX, Van Nuys, and Burbank. Jet Center has earned a string of top FBO rankings, including the number-one ACE FBO in the United States and the number-four FBO nationally. The terminal features a state-of-the-art theater room, a conference room, and a pilot briefing room. One distinctive draw is Eureka! Tasting Kitchen, an on-site restaurant with craft burgers, a full bar featuring small-batch whiskeys, and draft beer, making it one of the few FBOs in the country with a genuine sit-down dining option. The facility is open Sunday through Friday from 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Both Jet A and Avgas are available. Archer Aviation acquired the airport master lease in late 2025 for future electric air taxi operations, which signals continued investment in the field. For charter passengers attending events at SoFi Stadium, visiting the South Bay beach communities, or heading to meetings on the Westside, Hawthorne offers the shortest ground transportation times of any LA-area airport. The VIP check-in process inside the Jet Center lobby is streamlined, and private facilities keep high-profile passengers out of public view.
