Los Cabos is the Pacific coast's top luxury resort market and a major private destination from the western US. Golf, fishing, and winter sun drive a long high season. Los Angeles runs on Van Nuys, one of the world's busiest general-aviation airports, plus Burbank and Orange County. Entertainment, tech, and a constant Las Vegas and Bay Area shuttle drive heavy one-way demand.
Most Cabo San Lucas–Los Angeles private traffic moves through dedicated business-aviation airports rather than the crowded commercial terminals. On the Cabo San Lucas end that means Los Cabos International (SJD); arrivals into Los Angeles favor Van Nuys (VNY) and Hollywood Burbank (BUR). Flying these FBO-served fields means curb-to-cabin in minutes and no main-terminal queues on either side.
At 930 miles this is squarely light and midsize jets territory — aircraft like the Citation XLS+ and Embraer Phenom 300 have the range and cabin to fly it comfortably nonstop, which is why they make up most of the empty-leg supply on the route. Los Angeles runs 1 hour behind Cabo San Lucas, so you land with the clock in your favor. Demand peaks around November through April, peaking around the holidays out of Cabo San Lucas and award season in winter and the summer travel stretch into Los Angeles, when repositioning flights — and therefore empty legs — are most frequent.
