Frequently asked questions
What is the runway length at KJDN?
KJDN has a single paved runway, 11/29, measuring 4,300 feet long and 75 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This is also the airport's maximum paved runway length, so it defines the operational limits for fixed-wing traffic. There is no parallel or crosswind runway option at this field.
Is Jordan Airport attended or towered?
Jordan Airport is unattended and does not have an operating control tower, so all traffic operates under CTAF procedures. Pilots activate the medium intensity runway lights on runway 11/29 and the PAPI on runway 29 themselves via CTAF rather than relying on airport personnel. Clearance delivery, when needed, is handled through Salt Lake ARTCC rather than a local facility.
Does KJDN have customs clearance onsite?
KJDN does not have customs service onsite. The nearest customs airport of entry is located approximately 118 nautical miles away, so aircraft requiring customs clearance need to route through that facility rather than clearing directly at Jordan. Operators should plan itineraries accordingly when crossing into the area from outside the United States.
What operational hazards or conditions are noted at Jordan Airport?
Jordan Airport (KJDN) has a couple of noted operational conditions worth planning around. There is rising terrain, about 10 feet higher, located 100 feet left of and parallel to the runway centerline. Runway markings on 11/29 are also reported as faded, which can reduce visual reference during landing and takeoff, particularly in low light.
