Why Charter from Omaha?
Eppley Airfield is a primarily point-to-point commercial airport whose connections through Denver and Chicago create schedule dependencies. Omaha’s remarkable concentration of Fortune 500 companies — Berkshire Hathaway, Union Pacific, Mutual of Omaha, and ConAgra Foods — creates executive aviation demand that private charter serves more effectively than commercial alternatives.
