Frequently asked questions
Is there customs clearance available at KGWW?
Wayne Executive Jetport does not have customs available onsite. The nearest customs airport is KRDU, located approximately 47 nautical miles away. Crews arriving from international destinations need to plan a stop at KRDU or another customs-equipped facility before continuing to Goldsboro. This distance should factor into fuel and routing planning for any international arrival into KGWW.
What fuel is available at Wayne Executive Jetport?
Wayne Executive Jetport stocks both 100LL and Jet A fuel, listed in airport data as A1+. Self-service fuel is available on a 24-hour basis and accepts credit card payment, according to airport remarks. This allows for after-hours fueling without needing to coordinate with staffed personnel. The attended schedule at KGWW runs Monday through Saturday from 0800 to 1700, and Sunday from 1300 to 1700, for other services.
What is the runway configuration at KGWW?
KGWW has a single paved runway, designated 05/23, measuring 5501 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. Lighting includes ODALS on runway 23, REIL on runway 05, and MIRL for the full runway 05/23, all activated via CTAF. PAPI is installed on both runway 05 and runway 23 and operates continuously. Note that the runway 23 PAPI is not coincidental with the ILS runway 23 glideslope, a detail relevant for approach planning.
Does Wayne Executive Jetport have a control tower?
Wayne Executive Jetport, identified by ICAO code KGWW, is a non-towered airport. Traffic coordination relies on CTAF procedures and pilot-reported positions rather than tower instructions. For clearance delivery, pilots should contact Seymour Johnson Approach; when that facility is closed, clearance delivery is handled through Washington ARTCC. Given the proximity of Seymour Johnson AFB just over 7 nautical miles south, coordination with that facility's airspace is a relevant operational consideration.
What kind of business aviation traffic does KGWW see, and does it vary seasonally?
Wayne Executive Jetport recorded 899 business aviation operations in 2025 out of 1743 total operations, according to FAA TFMSC data. Traffic is not distributed evenly across the year, with May and September showing the highest monthly counts at 118 and 110 operations respectively. Winter months, particularly January and February, see notably lower activity, near 50 operations each. Dispatchers scheduling flights into KGWW during peak months should anticipate a higher concentration of business aviation movements compared to the winter season.
