General Aviation Airport with new commercial service
Low Cost carrier Allegiant Air began flying into Concord Regional Airport in December 2013 with twice weekly flight to the Orlando / Daytona, FL (SFB airport) on Monday and Friday. This is the first scheduled service at the airport. The airport is also known as the home of the NASCAR Air Force with many teams using the airport each week. Many General Aviaiton piliots say airport has the friendliest and most unique air traffic controllers around. Tower open from 7 AM to 11 PM Airport is owned and operated by the City of Concord who also operates the FBO. Worldfuel is the fuel supplier under the Phillips 66 Aviation brand. Customers can take advantage of both brands loyality reward card programs. Volume and based aircraft discounts available. Visit the airport website for current list of FBO services, prices, and fees. Blue Eagle maintenance on field as are over 5 flight schools and a DPE Larry Morris.

Good Fuel Prices
Stopped in here in December 2009 -- 100LL was under $4.00/gal. City/County run airport with no fuel competition. Busy airport with nice terminal facilities. Lots of NASCAR customers. No restaurant at the airport, but the do have crew cars. TSS
