Welcome to Veterans Airport!
We are ideally located in Southern Illinois between St. Louis, Missouri and Paducah, Kentucky. Our Airport offers on-site vehicle rentals, motel, and Fire Station providing 24-hour response. We have 8002 feet of runway and plenty of ramp/terminal parking with grounded tie-downs to complement a 22,000 sq-ft corporate hangar and Fixed Base Operator maintenance hangars.
