Daniel Field (DNL)

Daniel Field (DNL) is a public-use general aviation airport located just one mile west of the central business district of Augusta, Georgia. Owned by the City of Augusta, the airfield serves as a vital hub for private aircraft, flight training, and corporate aviation in the Central Savannah River Area. The airport features two asphalt runways, including the 4,002-foot Runway 5/23, and is notably busier during the annual Masters Tournament, when it accommodates a significant volume of private jet traffic. Augusta Aviation, one of the oldest Fixed-Base Operators in the Southeast, serves as the sole FBO at Daniel Field. The terminal facilities managed by the FBO provide comprehensive amenities for pilots and passengers, including a comfortable lounge, a snooze room, and a conference room for business meetings. Services on-site range from Jet A and Avgas fueling to complex aircraft maintenance and repair at their Cirrus Service Center. Complimentary Wi-Fi and basic refreshments are also available within the terminal building, though there are no full-service restaurants or retail shops on the airport grounds. As there are no scheduled commercial airline services at Daniel Field, the terminal does not have traditional passenger check-in desks or security checkpoints. Travelers using the facility typically arrive via private or chartered aircraft and must arrange ground transportation in advance. Rental car services can be coordinated through Augusta Aviation, and the airport's proximity to downtown Augusta makes it a highly convenient option for business travelers. For commercial flights, passengers should look to Augusta Regional Airport (AGS), located about seven miles to the south.
