Greenwood–Leflore Airport (KGWO) is a medium airport in Greenwood, MS. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code KGWO or IATA code GWO. It sits in North America.

Greenwood–Leflore Airport is a regional airport primarily serving general aviation, charter, and corporate flight departments. The 6,501-foot runway means it is well-suited as a dedicated bizjet field, free from airline scheduling pressure.

The longest runway measures 6,501 ft (1,982 m), a midsize and super-midsize-class field. Representative aircraft that operate comfortably here include the Citation Longitude, Challenger 350, and Gulfstream G280. In practice this comfortable for most midsize and super-mid charter equipment.

Greenwood–Leflore Airport sits near sea level at 162 ft.

Local operations run on America/Chicago. Without scheduled airline traffic, the field tends to be quieter and more flexible for charter and corporate operations — a useful characteristic for early morning, late night, or short-notice flights that would be impractical at a hub.

SkyAccess currently tracks 63 departing and 13 arriving private-jet legs at KGWO across the next six months of operator inventory. 4 charter operators have run trips through this field in our recent inventory window.

Regional fields like KGWO are a meaningful share of US private aviation — closer to the trip's actual origin or destination than the nearest major hub, with shorter ramp-to-cabin times that are the main reason owners and brokers prefer them.

Greenwood–Leflore Airport is a public airport located seven miles east of Greenwood, the county seat of Leflore County, Mississippi, United States. It is owned by the City of Greenwood and Leflore County, but is geographically located in Carroll County.
