Frequently asked questions
Is KJWY towered, and what frequency do pilots use?
KJWY, also known as Mid-Way Regional, is a non-towered airport. Pilots coordinate movements on the CTAF, which also controls the pilot-activated lighting. Runway 18/36 carries both REIL on runway 18 and MIRL along the full length, both activated via CTAF. Given the non-towered status, self-announce procedures apply for all traffic patterns and runway operations. Glider operations also occur on the airport, so radio awareness is particularly important during pattern work.
What runway configuration does Mid-Way Regional offer?
Mid-Way Regional (KJWY) has a single paved runway, designated 18/36, measuring 6,500 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This is the airport's only runway and matches the field's maximum paved distance figure. There is a controlling obstruction near the runway environment that exceeds a 45-degree slope, which affects approach and departure planning. Operators should factor this obstruction into performance calculations, particularly for the affected runway end.
Where is the nearest customs facility to KJWY?
Mid-Way Regional does not have onsite customs processing. The nearest customs facility is at KDAL, located approximately 23.48 nautical miles away. Operators arriving from international origins into KJWY need to plan a stop at KDAL or another customs-equipped airport beforehand, since no customs service is available directly at the field. This distance should be factored into routing and fuel planning for international arrivals.
What fuel is available at Mid-Way Regional, and what about after-hours service?
Mid-Way Regional (KJWY) stocks both 100LL and Jet A fuel. The airport's attendance schedule runs Monday through Saturday from 0800 to 1900 during March through October, shifting to 0800-1800 in the November-to-February period; Sunday hours run 0900-1900 and 0900-1800 respectively across the same seasons. Outside these posted hours, pilots needing fuel or services must make prior arrangements, as after-hours fuel and services require coordination ahead of arrival. Operators should plan fuel stops around the seasonal attendance windows.
How does business aviation traffic vary throughout the year at KJWY?
Business aviation traffic at Mid-Way Regional (KJWY) shows a clear seasonal pattern, with the lowest monthly counts in January and August at 57 and 53 operations respectively. Traffic builds toward the fall, peaking in October at 104 operations, with November and December also running high at 100 and 97 operations. Total annual business aviation operations reached 1,013 in 2025 according to FAA TFMSC data, out of 1,616 total annual operations at the field. Dispatchers should anticipate busier ramp conditions in the fourth quarter compared to mid-summer.
