Burbank compared with Van Nuys
Compared with Van Nuys (VNY), the main private jet airport for Los Angeles, Burbank is closer to Beverly Hills (9 miles against 11) and sits about 8 miles away from it. Its longest runway is 1,115 feet shorter than Van Nuys's, which matters mostly for heavy jets on long trips. A quote from BUR instead of VNY can come out cheaper or dearer depending on where the aircraft is parked, so it's worth asking for both.
