Grant County Airport

Grant County Airport (KSVC) is a medium airport in Silver City, NM. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code KSVC or IATA code SVC. It sits in North America.

Grant County Airport is a regional commercial airport that doubles as a busy private-aviation base. Operators benefit from full instrument approaches and an FBO infrastructure scaled for regular jet traffic, often without the congestion of the nearest major hub.

The longest runway measures 6,803 ft (2,074 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.

Grant County Airport sits at 5,446 ft above sea level. Hot-and-high conditions can meaningfully reduce takeoff performance in summer — planners should factor density altitude into payload and fuel decisions.

Local operations run on America/Denver. Scheduled airline service is light enough that it rarely interferes with charter movements, though planners should still expect to coordinate with the handling agent for international turnarounds.

SkyAccess currently tracks 337 departing and 359 arriving private-jet legs at KSVC across the next six months of operator inventory. 3 charter operators have run trips through this field in our recent inventory window.

Regional fields like KSVC 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.
