Destin Executive Airport (KDTS) is a medium airport in Destin, FL. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code KDTS or IATA code DSI. It sits in North America.
Destin Executive 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 5,001 ft (1,524 m), a light-jet-class field. Representative aircraft that operate comfortably here include the Phenom 300, Citation CJ4, and Learjet 75. In practice this limits operations to light jets, turboprops, and short-field-capable aircraft.
Destin Executive Airport sits near sea level at 23 ft.
Local operations run on America/Chicago. 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 66 departing and 56 arriving private-jet legs at KDTS across the next six months of operator inventory. 17 charter operators have run trips through this field in our recent inventory window.
Regional fields like KDTS 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.
