  "connection_tips": "Astoria Regional Airport is the northern Oregon Coast's practical aviation backstop, so connecting here usually means using a private charter or general aviation flight and then transferring by road to the coast. If you need a commercial airline network, Portland is the sensible fallback, and that makes AST most useful for local access to Astoria, Warrenton, Seaside, and the Columbia River maritime area rather than for airline-style transfers.\n\nThe field is well supported for general aviation, with FBO services, fueling, and a strong Coast Guard and search-and-rescue presence that gives the airport real operational depth. That mixed civil-military role is useful, but it also means travelers should treat the airfield as a working regional airport rather than as a place with the retail and dining spread of a big city terminal.\n\nCoastal weather is the main variable to respect. Fog, low cloud, and Pacific wind patterns can all shape the day, so a flexible schedule and current METAR or TAF information matter more than a polished terminal experience. If you arrange car rental or shuttle service in advance, the airport becomes a very efficient access point for the Oregon coast and its surrounding communities. That extra buffer keeps the coast manageable.\n",

  "terminal_info": "Astoria Regional Airport (AST) is a public-use aviation facility located in Warrenton, Oregon, approximately three miles southwest of the historic city of Astoria. Owned and operated by the Port of Astoria, the airport serves as a critical transportation hub for the northern Oregon coast, primarily supporting general aviation, corporate travel, and military operations. The airfield is most notable for being home to the United States Coast Guard Sector Columbia River, a major search and rescue base that operates HH-60 Jayhawk helicopters.\n\nThe terminal building serves as the central hub for the airport's Fixed Base Operator (FBO), providing essential services for transient pilots and their guests. Inside, visitors will find a friendly and welcoming atmosphere with a basic waiting area, flight planning facilities, and administrative offices for the Port. The facility offers full-service 100LL and Jet A fuel, with 24-hour self-service available for light aircraft. While the airport does not have a permanent commercial control tower, its operations are well-managed to ensure safety for both civilian and military traffic sharing the runways.\n\nInfrastructure at Astoria Regional includes two primary asphalt runways, with the main runway (8/26) measuring 5,796 feet, making it suitable for a wide range of corporate jets and regional turboprops. The facility is equipped with automated weather observation systems (AWOS) to provide real-time conditions for arrivals and departures. Despite its lack of scheduled airline service, the airport remains a vital link for the regional economy, providing quick access to the Columbia River maritime industry and the scenic communities of Seaside and Cannon Beach.",
