Landing Rights Request

Private aircraft operators can enjoy the benefits of flying into uncongested airspace and landing at our exceptional facility by filing an Overflight Exemption with US Customs. Upon approval, you will be able to bypass customary border airports and enter the country at your new destination of choice.

Current U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) policy requires General Aviation and Charter Aircraft to stop at the Southern U.S. Border for clearance. An Overflight Exemption will allow an aircraft to fly past the border to another Port of Entry to clear CBP.

Once an application for a Southern Border Overflight Exemption (BOE) is received, the process may take 4-12 weeks. Air ambulances may request a one-time exemption.
