Why the Vail Valley flies into KEGE

Eagle County Regional Airport records significantly fewer weather-related disruptions per season than KASE. Its 6,548-foot elevation and longer runways accommodate a broader range of aircraft, and its approach corridor is less sensitive to the ceiling and wind conditions that close Aspen. For a principal whose destination is Vail or Beaver Creek, it is also the nearest FBO — the transfer is a short run east on I-70, not a mountain crossing.

The transfer from Eagle runs east on I-70 through Edwards and Avon — the Beaver Creek turn-off — and on to Vail. It is about 35 miles, roughly 35 minutes. JetSet Mountain FBO Ground Transportation chauffeurs know this corridor in all seasons and conditions, and the same vehicle and chauffeur stay with you for the whole stay.

JetSet Mountain holds credentialed ramp access at Signature Flight Support (formerly Vail Valley Jet Center, acquired and rebranded by Signature Aviation) and at NetJets' dedicated KEGE terminal. Your chauffeur is staged at your designated FBO and positioned plane-side before wheels-down. If the aircraft is sent to Aspen or Rifle instead, the vehicle repositions automatically — no rebooking and no alternate-airport fee.

KEGE has two FBOs: Signature Flight Support (formerly Vail Valley Jet Center, now operating under the Signature Aviation brand) and NetJets, which operates a dedicated terminal for owner and fractional operations.

Is I-70 reliable between Eagle and Vail in winter?

I-70 East from Eagle to Avon and Vail is the standard route and is maintained year-round. CDOT closures are uncommon on this stretch but can occur in severe weather. Every Stormrider runs studded tires, and chauffeurs monitor CDOT conditions in real time and adjust routing as needed.
