Jet Linx Chicago

Jet Linx Chicago is the local base of Jet Linx, a private aviation company founded in Omaha, Nebraska in 1999. The Chicago base opened in 2018 at Chicago Executive Airport (KPWK) in Wheeling, Illinois, and the company describes it as its 15th private terminal in the United States.

The base offers Jet Card membership and aircraft management, and the Jet Linx website also lists joint ownership, consulting and an aircraft marketplace. Jet Linx's model combines locally based teams with the company's national network, and the Chicago base has its own regional vice president and base manager.

The private terminal at 1066 S. Milwaukee Ave is separate from the airport's public FBOs. Jet Linx lists on-site maintenance staff, valet parking, a conference room and a kitchen, and its older site describes a 27,000 square foot hangar alongside the terminal.

Chicago Executive Airport is north-west of the city, roughly 20 minutes from O'Hare. Flyers comparing options should ask which aircraft in the Jet Linx fleet would be used for their trips and how Jet Card pricing applies from this base.
