KRAL is the ICAO code for Riverside Municipal Airport (IATA RAL), located in Riverside, CA.
Riverside Municipal Airport (KRAL) is a medium airport in Riverside, CA. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code KRAL or IATA code RAL. It sits in North America.
Riverside Municipal Airport is a regional airport primarily serving general aviation, charter, and corporate flight departments. The 5,401-foot runway means it is well-suited as a dedicated bizjet field, free from airline scheduling pressure.
The longest runway measures 5,401 ft (1,646 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.
Riverside Municipal Airport sits near sea level at 819 ft.
Local operations run on America/Los_Angeles. 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 488 departing and 379 arriving private-jet legs at KRAL across the next six months of operator inventory. 10 charter operators have run trips through this field in our recent inventory window.
Regional fields like KRAL 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.
