Direct from Piedmont Triad to the New York metro in under 90 minutes. Land at Teterboro, White Plains, or Republic. No layovers, no connections, no commercial crowds.
Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO/KGSO) sits 12 miles northwest of downtown Greensboro. SkySouth departs from here on your schedule with no commercial terminal delays, no TSA queues, and no connection requirements. The flight to the New York metro area takes roughly 1 hour and 20 minutes on the Citation CJ3.
Every commercial traveler from the Triad flying to New York must connect through Charlotte, Atlanta, or another hub. SkySouth customers fly point to point and choose the arrival airport closest to their actual destination, whether that is Midtown Manhattan, Westchester County, or Long Island.
Flying private means choosing the arrival airport closest to where you are actually going. Here is a breakdown of all three options and when each one makes the most sense.

This is one of the most requested routes from the Triad region. Here is who typically books it and what they are trying to accomplish.
Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO/KGSO) is the primary commercial and general aviation airport serving Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and High Point. According to the FAA, KGSO has a 10,001-foot primary runway, one of the longest in North Carolina, which accommodates both the Citation CJ1 and Citation CJ3 without restriction.
Customers in Burlington and eastern Alamance County also have the option to depart from Burlington-Alamance Regional Airport (KBUY), SkySouth's home base, roughly 30 minutes east of Greensboro. KBUY offers the full SkySouth FBO experience with comfortable crew facilities, ramp access, and direct boarding. The 6,400-foot runway at KBUY handles both aircraft on the New York route with ease.
At the destination, Teterboro Airport (KTEB) is owned and operated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and runs 24 hours a day. Designated as a general aviation relief airport by the FAA, Teterboro handles no commercial airline traffic and is the oldest continuously operating airport in the New York City metropolitan area.
