About Lake City Gateway Airport
Lake City Gateway Airport is a city-owned, public-use airport serving Lake City and Columbia County in North Central Florida. Opened in April 1940, the airport has grown into an important general aviation and business gateway for the region, supporting private aircraft, charter flights, air ambulance operations and flight training.
Located about three miles east of the central business district of Lake City, the airport offers convenient road access along US Highway 90 and sits close to major regional routes. Its facilities include two paved runways, a control tower, aviation fuel, aircraft parking and an FBO terminal with passenger and pilot amenities.
Although it does not handle scheduled airline service, the airport plays a key role in local business travel, medical transport and recreational flying. Its position near Gainesville and Jacksonville also makes it a practical entry point for general aviation visitors travelling across the wider area.
