This list contains the following information:

  • Location - The village or other location generally associated with the airport.

    • CS: Commercial Service - Non-Primary are publicly owned airports that receive scheduled passenger service and have at least 2,500 passenger boardings each year.
    • R: Reliever airports are designated by the FAA to relieve congestion at a large commercial service airport and to provide more general aviation access to the overall community.
    • GA: General Aviation airports are the largest single group of airports in the U.S. airport system.
  • Enpl. - The number of enplanements (commercial passenger boardings) that occurred at the airport in calendar year 2019, as per FAA records.
