About DeKalb Peachtree Airport

DeKalb Peachtree Airport is a municipal general aviation airport serving the Atlanta metropolitan area. Opened in 1941 on the site of the former Camp Gordon, it later operated as a Naval Air Station during World War II before returning to civilian control in 1959.

Today the airport is Georgia's second-busiest airport and the premier general aviation reliever facility for Atlanta, handling corporate jets, business aircraft, helicopters, and private aviation. It reduces congestion at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and supports more than 125 aviation-related businesses.

Located about 8 miles from downtown Atlanta, PDK offers three runways, a modern air traffic control tower, 143 hangars, and 24-hour security and fire and rescue services. Passenger and crew facilities are provided through fixed-base operators including Signature Aviation, Aero Centers Atlanta, and Atlantic Aviation.

Travelers can reach the airport via I-85 and I-285, and on-site services include restaurants, car rental, flight schools, and charter operators. With its proximity to Buckhead, Midtown, and Decatur, PDK provides a convenient gateway for private and business travelers in the Atlanta region.
