TFR - TEMPORARY FLIGHT RESTRICTION

Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) that restrict the airspace due to the Presidential movement are known as ‘Presidential Movement TFRs‘. The President’s official aircraft, Air Force One, causes these restrictions to be put into place. It is crucial for aviation and airport authorities to consider these restrictions since they limit access to airspace and minimize potential risks during Presidential travel.

These restrictions typically apply to all aircraft types, including drones, within a specified radius of the President’s location. Moreover, when the President attends an event or visits a city, these TFRs can extend past the time of his visit for security purposes. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) determines the specifications for Presidential Movement TFRs, which vary by location.

Whenever there is an active TFR we will notify you with a pop-up window when first visiting our website. If you do not receive a pop-up window, there is no TFR active at that time.

Presidential TFR routes are in effect when President Joe Biden is on the East Coast at his home or near Ocean City MD. Due to this information being unpredictable, TFR routes may be required at any time.
