Frequently asked questions
Does KREG have customs available for international arrivals?
Louisiana Regional (KREG) has CBP inspection services available onsite, according to the airport's customs data. This means aircraft arriving from international destinations can clear customs at the field rather than diverting to another airport. Dispatchers should confirm current CBP staffing and procedures directly with the local office before planning an international arrival, since onsite availability does not guarantee round-the-clock coverage. The airport is a public-use, non-towered facility in Gonzales, Louisiana.
What runway does KREG offer, and what are its dimensions?
KREG has a single runway, 17/35, measuring 5,003 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This is the only paved runway at Louisiana Regional, and its length matches the airport's published max paved distance. The runway is served by medium intensity runway lighting and REIL on both ends, preset to low intensity from dusk to dawn. Pilots can increase lighting intensity by keying the CTAF.
What fuel is available at Louisiana Regional Airport?
Louisiana Regional Airport (KREG) offers both 100LL and Jet A fuel. 100LL is available self-service using a credit card, allowing access outside staffed hours. Jet A is available after hours as well, though after-hours Jet A service may involve different handling than daytime fueling. The airport's attendance schedule runs daily from 0800 to 1700 local time, so fuel availability outside that window relies on these self-service and after-hours provisions.
Is there a noise abatement procedure for departures at KREG?
Yes, Louisiana Regional (KREG) has a noise abatement procedure for departures from Runway 17. Aircraft departing that runway are advised to climb to 800 feet AGL before executing a left turn. This procedure appears in the airport's general remarks and applies specifically to Runway 17 departures rather than the airport as a whole. Dispatchers and pilots planning departures from Runway 17 should brief this climb requirement in advance.
How does business aviation traffic at KREG vary through the year?
Business aviation traffic at Louisiana Regional (KREG) is not evenly distributed across the year, based on 2025 FAA TFMSC data. October recorded the highest monthly total at 178 operations, while November was the lowest at 111. Other months generally fall in a range between roughly 116 and 167 operations. This uneven pattern means dispatchers scheduling flights in October or February should expect somewhat higher activity levels at the field than in November or July.
