Cape Cod Gateway Airport (HYA)

Cape Cod Gateway Airport, identified by the IATA code HYA and ICAO code KHYA, is a premier aviation facility located in Hyannis, Massachusetts. As the primary air hub for the Cape and the Islands, the airport serves as a critical gateway for travelers visiting Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket. Its strategic location at the heart of the peninsula makes it an essential transport link for the region's robust tourism economy and a vital center for regional business travel and government administration. The airport features a modern 35,000-square-foot passenger terminal that centralizes all commercial and general aviation services through an efficient and welcoming layout. The facility is equipped with a dedicated FAA air traffic control tower and provides a range of traveler amenities including a full-service restaurant, gift shops, and free high-speed Wi-Fi. Technical infrastructure at the 639-acre site is anchored by two robust asphalt grooved runways, each over 5,200 feet in length, capable of accommodating modern regional jets and heavy corporate vessels. The facility is supported by world-class Fixed-Base Operators (FBOs) such as Atlantic Aviation, providing 24/7 technical support including Jet-A and 100LL fueling, aircraft maintenance, and secure hangar storage. Flight operations at Cape Cod Gateway are robust and highly integrated with the regional transport network. Cape Air serves as the primary year-round carrier, providing high-frequency scheduled connections to Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, Boston, and New York (JFK). During the peak summer season, the airport sees a significant increase in activity with additional services from JetBlue and American Airlines connecting Hyannis to major East Coast hubs.
