The longest runway measures 8,003 ft (2,439 m), a heavy-class field. Representative aircraft that operate comfortably here include the Gulfstream G550, Falcon 7X, and Bombardier Global 5500. In practice this most heavy and super-midsize jets operate here without restriction.

Valdosta Regional Airport sits near sea level at 203 ft.

Local operations run on America/New_York. 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 37 departing and 145 arriving private-jet legs at KVLD across the next six months of operator inventory. 5 charter operators have run trips through this field in our recent inventory window.

Regional fields like KVLD 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.
