Private Jet Airports in Eastern Washington and Oregon
Choosing an airfield here
What drives the choice in this area: where the traffic goes, where you can clear, and what you can land.
Overview
50 airfields serve Eastern Washington and Oregon. Coeur D'alene (KCOE) handles the most business aviation traffic, with 12% of the area's business jet movements , followed by Spokane International and Felts Field . The area stretches across eastern Washington, eastern Oregon, and the Idaho panhandle, a corridor of roughly 150 NM at its widest that mixes Columbia Basin farmland with the foothills of the Rockies. Customs presence sits at four fields, clustered around Spokane and Moses Lake rather than spread evenly across the region. Elevations range from valley fields near sea level along the Columbia River to Mc Call Municipal above 5,000 ft, where density altitude and mountain terrain shape approach planning more than anywhere else in the area. Winter snow at the higher fields contrasts with a summer traffic surge tied to outdoor recreation and agriculture.
Comparison

Frequently asked questions
How far apart are the customs airports at Spokane and Coeur D'Alene?
Spokane International (KGEG) and Coeur D'Alene (KCOE) sit 30 NM apart, both holding CBP inspection services and USDA compliance agreements. Felts Field (KSFF) adds a third customs point just 9 NM from Spokane International, and Grant County International (KMWH) at Moses Lake is 77 NM from Spokane International. For a crew planning a customs stop in this area, that gives a choice of four inspection points spread across the Washington-Idaho corridor rather than a single gateway, with Spokane International and Felts Field close enough to function as a pair.
Where is the longest runway in the Eastern Washington and Oregon area, and what does it support?
The longest paved runway in the Eastern Washington and Oregon area is 13,503 ft at Grant County International (KMWH) in Moses Lake, Washington. That length is well beyond what any business jet requires, reflecting the field's history as a former Air Force base and its continued use for flight testing and heavy aircraft work. Grant County International also holds customs on site, combining the longest runway in the area with CBP inspection services. Fourteen airports in the area have runways of 6,000 ft or more, but Moses Lake stands apart on raw runway length.
How does business jet traffic in this area shift between spring and summer?
Business jet movements in the Eastern Washington and Oregon area rose from a low of 4,183 in April 2025 to a peak of 6,305 in July, a jump of roughly 50%. August followed close behind at 6,092 movements. Only four months of the year ran above the average of 5,097 movements, and all four fall between June and September. Dispatchers routing through this area in shoulder-season months should expect noticeably thinner traffic than the summer peak, which concentrates around outdoor recreation and agricultural activity tied to the warmer months.
What elevation should crews plan for at Mc Call Municipal compared to the rest of the area?
Mc Call Municipal (KMYL) sits at 5,024 ft, the highest elevation among public-use airports in the Eastern Washington and Oregon area. That is well above the area's lower-lying fields such as Richland (KRLD) at 394 ft or Columbia Gorge Regional (KDLS) at 246 ft. The gap matters for density altitude planning, particularly in summer when Mc Call also sees recreational traffic tied to the surrounding Idaho backcountry. Crews sizing performance for a McCall arrival should reference its field elevation directly rather than assuming lowland conditions typical elsewhere in the area.
Which airports in this area combine a control tower with Jet A and customs?
In the Eastern Washington and Oregon area, Spokane International (KGEG), Felts Field (KSFF), and Grant County International (KMWH) each combine a control tower, Jet A fuel, and on-site CBP inspection services. Coeur D'Alene (KCOE) also offers Jet A and customs but does not have a tower. That leaves four customs-capable fields in total, three of them towered, spread across a corridor that runs from Moses Lake through Spokane to Coeur D'Alene. Ten airports in the area have towers overall, so the towered-and-customs combination narrows the field considerably for crews needing both services together.
