About Jefferson County International Airport
Jefferson County International Airport (TWD) is the primary public airport serving Port Townsend and Jefferson County on Washington's Olympic Peninsula. Owned by the Port of Port Townsend and dating to 1939, the airport has long supported general aviation access to this coastal community.
The airport operates a single asphalt runway, 9/27, and a compact general aviation terminal and FBO area rather than separate airline terminals. It is designated as an international airport of entry, allowing general aviation flights to clear customs, and it supports flight instruction, aircraft charter, maintenance and air ambulance services.
Located about 6 miles (10 km) southwest of downtown Port Townsend, the airport is reached by road and is typically a 15–20 minute drive from the city centre, with connections to the surrounding Jefferson County area.
Passengers and pilots can use on-site amenities including the Spruce Goose Cafe, the Port Townsend Aero Museum, a pilot lounge, fuel services and aircraft support facilities. The airport serves as a convenient arrival point for visitors exploring historic Port Townsend, Fort Worden State Park and the wider Olympic Peninsula.
