While Ronald Reagan Airport in downtown DC is the closest airport in the area it is not always the easiest to use.

With the flight from Miami to Washington DC being about 2 hours there are quite a few aircraft that would work for this trip.

If you have under 8 passengers a Light Jet would be perfect for this flight.
