Airfield Details

Runway 01L/19R is the longest at 10,302 feet, while 01R/19L measures 7,302 feet and 14/32 measures 6,301 feet.

Why It Matters for Visitors
For most visitors, ICT works best as a straightforward arrival point for reaching Wichita itself rather than a destination airport where you would want to spend extra time. Its value is in convenience: the airport places you close to the city, uses Central Time for all local scheduling, and provides official travel updates through the flywichita.com website. Checking the airport site before you travel is the easiest way to confirm current services, parking guidance, and passenger information for the day of your trip.
