Teterboro has always been busy with business aircraft. Probably back to the 70s I'm guessing.

That’s a quiet day at TEB. There’s open parking spots at Signature West, and there’s no backup in the 24 hold pad.

My guess would be the U.S. Open. Teterboro is probably a lot cheaper parking than LaGuardia and a common destination for private jet setters heading to the city.

It ain’t so much about the cost as it is that LGA has 3 slots per hour for GA aircraft. If your finger isn’t over the “submit” button in the E-CVRS website at the top of the hour, you’re not getting one.

And the Oasis concerts at Giants Stadium.

If I was going to Queens, id rather fly into HPN.

I love the disparity between USA FBOs and those in Europe. In Europe planes dont really get parked close and they certainly don't stack em up like the Americans. Then for instance in Italy you can't taxi from the parking spot and they make it so you must be towed 10 feet then they disconnect and you could have taxied that 10 feet. Just interesting to see the differences. For an example just look how orderly the ramp looks in Nice on Google maps.

Honestly doesn’t look too bad. I’ve seen it absolutely stacked, with ramps and FBOs refusing aircraft due to lack of space.

Just wait until the World Cup final next year. They'll be trying to figure out how to stack the planes vertically like they do with cars downtown.
UNDR08@reddit
Hate that place.
CompassCardCaptain@reddit
Average Teterboro day.
Flagrant_negligence@reddit
Looked normal to me. Source: Im in the Teaneck Glenpoint Marriott right now
cktokm99@reddit (OP)
Of all the planes there what is the coolest 1 to fly and be seen on ?
Amazing visibility tonight and i enjoyed the views on the approach to EWR.
Flagrant_negligence@reddit
The one I get paid to fly! (It’s not in the pic it’s at Jet Aviation on the south side of the field.) From a plane watching perspective you see a lot of action at TEB. Lots of Globals and Gulfstreams, plenty of celebs. You see and are in very close proximity to everyone in the FBOs and never know who you will bump into

I once held the door for Henry Kissinger as he was walking in at Jet. Then helped a guy figure out the coffee machine around the corner and it was Bono. Steve Martin was sitting with his wife waiting for his ride that went to wrong FBO. All in one day waiting for my plane to get fixed.
FrozenDickuri@reddit
Should have shut the door on his foot.

Best TEB hotel with that full gym
MavenAloft@reddit
We usually stay at the Marriott.
Thoth-long-bill@reddit
How’s the chow there?
jabbs72@reddit
Or the Holiday Inn Hasbrouck Heights 🤢🤮
roy-dam-mercer@reddit
I could have made IHG lifetime platinum at that place if they had lifetime platinum.
Hank_moody71@reddit
Light day at TEB I don’t see gridlock on the FBO ramps
Lokitusaborg@reddit
Not bad. Landed there once. It’s a solid operation that can handle some weird capacity. They know what they are doing.
MaddingtonBear@reddit
Naah, this is not especially busy. Few more than usual at Old Dassault, but the main row at Atlantic is a little sparse and Meridian is practically empty. Now go and look over at Jet where the big boys hang out.
RadosAvocados@reddit
Maybe for the US Open tennis tournament this weekend?
PonderosaPilatus@reddit
I seen way worse. This isn't even close to busy for Teterhole.
Adventurous-Line1014@reddit
Kind of curious about the big burnt spot though
AnalBlaster700XL@reddit
Wet (or damp) soil?
MoeSzyslakMonobrow@reddit
Just park your shit wherever, I guess.
KinksAreForKeds@reddit
It literally looks like chaos.
cktokm99@reddit (OP)
Let the valet park it
Being_a_Mitch@reddit
Not too busy, I see open parking spots.
Source: that's our CJ3 near the bottom of the pic. TEB is a frequent stop.
TheGacAttack@reddit
I tried calling them to ask, but the lines were down.
Accomplished-One7476@reddit
Labor Day weekend
Minute-Shop9447@reddit
Seems normal. I spot here frequently, and there's always a lot of aircraft parked on the ramp when I go by. Also, there's many arrivals per hour on a normal day.
Purple_Opposite5464@reddit
Seems about normal to semi busy from my experiences at Teterboro. I’ve definitely seen it worse.
BrewCityChaserV2@reddit
It's amazing how big the wing area is on those Gulfstreams and Globals.
