Frequently asked questions
What is the runway length at KISO?
Kinston Regional Jetport at Stallings Field operates a single runway, 05/23, measuring 11,498 feet long and 150 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This length places KISO among the longer public-use runways in the region, capable of accommodating a wide range of business aircraft without length constraints. The airport is towered, with attendance logged from 0630 to 2200 local daily. There is no parallel runway, so all traffic uses this single strip.
Is fuel available at KISO?
Kinston Regional Jetport at Stallings Field stocks both 100LL and Jet A fuel on the field. The airport is attended daily from 0630 to 2200 local time, which covers the hours when fuel service can be arranged. Outside that window, the control tower is closed and lighting systems switch to pilot-activated mode. Dispatchers should plan fuel uplifts within the published attendance schedule.
Does KISO have on-site customs clearance?
Kinston Regional Jetport at Stallings Field does not have customs service on site. The nearest customs facility is at KNKT, located approximately 44 nautical miles away. Crews requiring customs clearance need to route through that facility rather than clearing directly at KISO. This distance should factor into routing and timing decisions for any international arrival.
What happens to the lighting at KISO when the tower is closed?
At Kinston Regional Jetport at Stallings Field, the approach lighting system becomes unmonitored once the air traffic control tower closes. Pilots must activate the MALSR on runway 05, the REIL on runway 23, and the HIRL on runways 05/23 themselves using CTAF. The PAPI on runway 23 operates continuously and does not require pilot activation. This split between pilot-activated and continuously operating systems is worth noting for night or early-morning operations at KISO.
How much business aviation traffic does KISO handle, and does it vary by season?
Kinston Regional Jetport at Stallings Field recorded 3,495 business aviation operations in 2025, out of 6,650 total annual operations, according to FAA TFMSC data. Monthly bizav traffic ranges from a low of 237 operations in February to a high of 371 in December. Traffic is notably concentrated toward the end of the year, with December standing out as the busiest month. Dispatchers scheduling around KISO should account for this late-year concentration when planning ramp and service availability.
