VIP 91.141 TFR NOTAM Impact Statements

The FAA issues temporary flight restrictions (TFRs) whenever the president and vice president travel within the United States. NBAA Air Traffic Services specialists at the FAA Air Traffic Control System Command Center (ATCSCC) compile information about the impact of these TFRs on business and general aviation, including what airports and airspace might be affected. NBAA TFR impact statements reference public airports with at least one runway of at least 3000' in length.

These NOTAMs typically establish TFRs with an inner ring of 10 to 12 nautical miles to prohibit all general aviation operations below 18,000 feet.

Two 2 nautical mile exclusion areas have been incorporated around Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE) and Witham Field Airport (SUA) to allow unrestricted arrivals and departures at these airports.

Gateway airport procedures have been created by the TSA at Orlando International (MCO), Ft. Lauderdale International (FLL), Dulles International (IAD), Teterboro (TEB), and Westchester County (HPN) to accommodate general aviation operations arriving Palm Beach International (PBI) during the TFR. TSA screening will also be available at Palm Beach International (PBI) for operators wishing to depart the airport during the TFR. Screening at TEB for this TFR has been set for Atlantic Aviation. (TEB will continue to rotate between their various FBOs for each Palm Beach TFR).

TSA screening will be unavailable Friday, November 14, 2025. TSA screening will be available Saturday, November 15, 2025 from 0800 local (1300z) until 1700 local (2200z) and Sunday, November 16, 2025 from 0800 local (1300z) until 1630 local (2130z).

These NOTAMs typically establish one or more 3 nautical mile TFRs. General aviation operations are permitted inside these TFRs, as long as the aircraft are on IFR flight plans and in communication with ATC. Operators should expect arrivals to be held and no ground movement at airports during the actual arrival or departure of the vice president.

The FAA may issue other VIP NOTAMs under FAR Part 91.141 that are not related directly to the current president or vice-president (e.g. papal visits or president-elects). Typically, these TFRs mimic the 3 nautical mile vice presidential TFRs, but operators should always review the associated NOTAMs before operating into or near them.
