Frequently asked questions
Is customs available at KLAN for international arrivals?
Capital Region International Airport has onsite CBP inspection services along with a USDA compliance agreement. International arrivals are accepted for aircraft carrying up to 200 passengers. Crews should contact CBP FIS directly for additional coordination details ahead of arrival. This onsite processing distinguishes KLAN from many airports in the region that route through nearby ports of entry. The arrangement supports both scheduled and non-scheduled international operations within the stated passenger limit.
What are the runway options at Capital Region International (KLAN)?
Capital Region International operates three paved asphalt runways. The longest is 10R/28L at 8,506 feet with a width of 150 feet, supporting the majority of business and commercial traffic. Runway 06/24 measures 5,003 feet by 120 feet, while 10L/28R is the shortest at 3,601 feet by 75 feet. Runway 06/24 and 10L/28R both carry restrictions barring Part 121 and Part 380 operations above specified passenger seat counts. Runway 10L/28R is also closed daily from sunset to sunrise.
Are there wingspan restrictions on taxiways at KLAN?
Yes, Capital Region International Airport restricts several taxiways based on aircraft wingspan. Taxiway C, southwest of the transient ramp, is not available to aircraft with a wingspan of 90 feet or greater. Taxiway G is closed to aircraft with a wingspan of 94 feet or greater. Taxiways E and L are not available to ACR aircraft at all. Operators of large-wingspan aircraft need to plan ground movement around these limits when using KLAN.
Does KLAN require prior permission for large aircraft?
Aircraft with a wingspan greater than 170 feet need prior permission to operate at Capital Region International Airport. Crews must contact airport operations to arrange this before arrival. Wide body aircraft also have specific taxi routing guidance: they should use taxiways B or B1 when exiting runway 10R/28L, and taxiway D when accessing the terminal ramp. These requirements reflect the airport's handling procedures for its largest paved runway. Dispatchers planning wide body movements through KLAN should factor this routing into ground handling plans.
What does business aviation traffic at KLAN look like across the year?
Business aviation traffic at Capital Region International (KLAN), based on FAA TFMSC data for 2025, totals 5,984 annual operations against 17,175 total operations at the field. Monthly bizav counts range from a low of 429 in June to a high of 575 in October. Traffic builds through spring and fall, with September and October showing the strongest months. Winter months, particularly December and February, see comparatively lower business aviation activity. This pattern is consistent with seasonal demand shifts in the region.
