Frequently asked questions
Is customs available onsite at KGVT?
No, Majors Airport (KGVT) does not have onsite customs clearance. The nearest customs-equipped airport is KTKI, located approximately 27 nautical miles away. Operators arriving from international origins need to route their customs clearance through that facility rather than clearing directly at Majors. Dispatchers planning cross-border arrivals should factor this into routing and coordinate customs arrangements at KTKI ahead of time.
How long is the runway at Majors Airport?
Majors Airport (KGVT) has a single runway, 17/35, measuring 8,030 feet long and 150 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This length accommodates a wide range of business jet types without runway-length constraints for most operations. The airport's maximum paved runway length matches this single strip, meaning all traffic uses the same runway regardless of aircraft category. The width of 150 feet also provides margin for larger aircraft during taxi and takeoff operations.
What are the operating hours at KGVT?
Majors Airport (KGVT) operates on a published attendance schedule of 0730 to 1700 Sunday through Thursday, and 0730 to 1800 Friday and Saturday. The airport is towered during these hours. When the control tower is closed, clearance delivery is handled by contacting Fort Worth ARTCC, and any onsite emergency or incident outside tower hours should be reported through the appropriate airport contact. Dispatchers should plan arrivals and departures around this schedule, particularly for evening operations.
Are there any notable obstructions near KGVT?
Yes, Majors Airport (KGVT) has cataloged obstructions that exceed a 45-degree slope, and some obstructions are taller than their obstruction lighting. A separate obstruction, an 89-foot high-intensity radio frequency antenna, sits 3,700 feet east of Runway 35 at the end of Taxiway K. Additionally, taxiway E lighting is positioned 47 feet from the pavement edge. Pilots and dispatchers should account for these obstructions during approach and departure planning, particularly on Runway 35.
What fuel is available at Majors Airport?
Majors Airport (KGVT) offers both 100LL and Jet A fuel. The 100LL is available via self-service around the clock. This combination supports both piston general aviation traffic and turbine business aircraft operating through the field. Operators should confirm current fuel availability and service arrangements ahead of arrival, particularly for Jet A during hours when the airport is less attended.
