Airfield and Operations
The airfield is equipped with two parallel lighted runways, giving the airport solid operational capacity in a compact setting. Runway 03L/21R measures 8,858 feet and has an asphalt surface, while runway 03R/21L is also 8,858 feet long and is built in concrete. For passengers, that mostly translates into reliable handling for scheduled flights and a facility designed to support regular commercial operations rather than a small regional airstrip feel.
