About Lawrence Regional Airport
Lawrence Regional Airport is a public general aviation airport serving Lawrence, Kansas, and the surrounding northeast Kansas region. Dedicated in October 1929, it is one of the oldest continuously operating airports in Kansas and primarily supports business, private and recreational flying rather than scheduled airline service.
Located about three miles north of downtown Lawrence on East US Highway 24/40, the airport serves the University of Kansas community and nearby Douglas County. It operates two runways, including the main Runway 15/33 at 5,701 feet and crosswind Runway 1/19 at 3,901 feet, with instrument approach capability to Runway 33.
The general aviation terminal building also functions as the fixed-base operator, offering fueling with 100LL and Jet A, aircraft parking, hangars, pilot and passenger lounges, and related ground services. The facility supports light aircraft, business aviation and flight training activity.
The airport is reached by road from Lawrence and is conveniently positioned near Interstate 70, roughly 30 minutes from the Kansas City area and 20 minutes from Topeka. This makes it a practical general aviation gateway for visitors traveling to the University of Kansas and the wider region.
