Anderson Regional Airport (AND)

Anderson Regional Airport (AND) operates as a key general aviation and corporate flight hub for Anderson County, South Carolina, and the surrounding Upstate region. As a facility without scheduled commercial passenger service, it does not utilize a traditional large-scale terminal with security queues and boarding gates. Instead, all operations are managed through a well-appointed terminal building that functions as the Fixed-Base Operator (FBO). This facility is designed to provide a comfortable and efficient experience for pilots, corporate travelers, and private aircraft owners, offering a relaxed alternative to busy commercial hubs. The terminal features a range of amenities tailored to the needs of the aviation community. Visitors have access to a comfortable pilot lounge equipped with recliners and cable TV, as well as a "snooze room" for crew rest. For business needs, there is an executive conference room available (with prior arrangement), a dedicated flight planning room, and complimentary high-speed wireless internet throughout the building. A kitchenette area with a microwave and refrigerator allows for light meal preparation. The FBO staff is known for their hospitality and can assist with arranging ground transportation, including rental cars, taxis, and limited rideshare options. Security and operations are streamlined for general aviation. There are no TSA checkpoints for passengers to navigate; instead, security measures focus on airfield access control and safety. The airport supports all-weather operations with a Category I Instrument Landing System. Fuel services are comprehensive, offering full-service Jet-A and 100LL, along with a discounted self-serve Avgas station. The FBO operates daily, with hours from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM on weekdays and 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekends, with after-hours service available upon request.
