FAA imposes yearlong flight restrictions around Mar-a-Lago
The FAA extended daily flight restrictions around Mar-a-Lago for a year to enhance security, affecting flight routes near Palm Beach International Airport, officials said.
- On Monday, the Federal Aviation Administration imposed daily temporary flight restrictions around Mar-a-Lago, Palm Beach, Florida, starting at 8:00 a.m. ET for special security reasons through Oct. 20, 2026.
- The FAA said these TFRs will remain through NEXT YEAR regardless of President Donald Trump’s presence at Mar-a-Lago, surprising some observers.
- Additional protections include a one nautical mile radius up to 2,000 feet ban, a 10 nautical mile inner core and 10–30 nautical mile outer ring around Palm Beach International Airport , with private pilots facing strict procedures and penalties.
- Officials warn that the restrictions will force flight diversions around Palm Beach International Airport, increasing air traffic and noise complaints in communities north of PBI, with more calls expected to the Department of Airports.
- The FAA did not respond Tuesday and Fox News reported Secret Service recently found a `suspicious hunting stand` near the airport during security preparations.
