About PS
PS is redefining the way the world travels. We build and operate private airport terminals that transform commercial air travel into a seamless luxury experience. Currently serving guests at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), and Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG), with new terminals underway at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Miami International Airport (MIA), PS is pioneering a new global standard in hospitality.
Far from the crowds and chaos of the public airport, PS offers members the privacy, ease, and security of the private flight experience while flying commercial. With exclusive partnerships with TSA and U.S. Customs and Border Protection, guests move effortlessly through line-free departures and arrivals. Every moment is carefully orchestrated by our expert team - private TSA screening, dedicated customs and immigration services, and luxury chauffeur transfers across the airfield directly to or from your aircraft.
Inside our private terminals, guests enjoy serene suites, chef-prepared dining, spa services, and personalized attention, while our Control Room coordinates discreetly with government, airline, and security partners to ensure unmatched efficiency, safety, and peace of mind. At PS, waiting in lines, crowded terminals, and luggage hassles give way to quiet elegance, service with heart and inspired experiences.
We are building more than terminals - we are shaping a new way to travel. If you're passionate about luxury hospitality and excited to be part of something extraordinary, join us as we expand to new markets and reimagine the future of travel with PS.
