DeKalb Peachtree Airport (PDK)

DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (PDK) is the primary general aviation and corporate reliever hub for the Atlanta metropolitan area, located in the city of Chamblee approximately 8 miles northeast of downtown. Unlike major commercial airports, PDK does not have a centralized passenger terminal; instead, it operates through several specialized Fixed-Base Operators (FBOs), such as Atlantic Aviation, Signature Aviation, and Aero Center Atlanta. Each FBO functions as a private terminal, providing an exclusive and efficient gateway for corporate jets, private pilots, and charter travelers.

The FBO terminals provide a wide range of premium amenities, including executive conference rooms, high-comfort passenger lounges with complimentary refreshments, and dedicated pilot snooze rooms with showers. Travelers have access to 24/7 on-site U.S. Customs and Border Protection services for international arrivals, provided with 24-hour advance notice. A unique feature of the airfield is its on-site dining options, most notably the 'Downwind Restaurant & Lounge' which features a deck overlooking the runway and the WWII-themed '57th Fighter Group Restaurant.'

Technical services at the field are comprehensive, featuring 24-hour fueling, aircraft maintenance, and extensive hangar storage managed by the various on-site providers. The airport is also a major center for pilot training, hosting nearly a dozen flight schools, and features a public 'PDK Park' with a playground and observation area for aviation enthusiasts. Ground transportation is well-supported by on-site car rental services and concierge-coordinated pickups, providing a quick link to the nearby I-85 and I-285 corridors.
