Burning Man creates unique aviation challenges — the nearest GA airport is Reno-Tahoe (RNO), 120 miles from Black Rock City. Some participants use the 88NV airstrip on the playa.
Booking Tips
The 88NV playa strip is unimproved and not suitable for jets. Reno-Tahoe is the realistic charter destination with a 2.5-hour ground transfer. Book Reno FBO space early.
