Frequently asked questions
Is customs clearance available at KRUT?
Rutland / Southern Vermont Regional does not have customs on site. The nearest customs facility is at KGFL, located about 31 nautical miles away. Crews planning international arrivals into KRUT need to route their clearance through that facility in advance. Since the airport is unattended outside its published hours, coordinating customs timing with the attendance schedule at KRUT is worth doing ahead of arrival.
What are the runway options at KRUT?
KRUT offers two paved asphalt runways. Runway 01/19 is the longer option at 5,304 feet with a width of 100 feet, while runway 13/31 measures 3,169 feet with a width of 75 feet. Both runways support fixed-wing operations, but aircraft with wing spans exceeding 79 feet are restricted to using taxiways H and B east of the runway intersections, with takeoff and landing limited to runway 01/19 for those aircraft.
Are there restrictions on scheduled airline operations at KRUT?
Both runways at Rutland / Southern Vermont Regional carry the same operational limit for Part 121 and Part 380 flying. Scheduled passenger operations with more than 9 seats and non-scheduled passenger operations with more than 30 seats are not permitted on runway 01/19 or runway 13/31. Unscheduled air carrier operations exceeding 30 passenger seats require a prior permission request filed 90 days in advance through the airport manager. This applies identically to both runway configurations at KRUT.
When is business aviation traffic busiest at KRUT?
Business aviation traffic at KRUT concentrates heavily in August, which recorded 377 operations in 2025, the highest monthly count of the year. July and January follow with 311 and 319 operations respectively, while the shoulder months of March through May see noticeably lower volumes near 130 to 160 operations. This traffic reflects FAA TFMSC cross-border data for the airport. Dispatchers scheduling summer or January arrivals into KRUT should anticipate higher activity levels than the spring months.
What deicing and cold-weather considerations apply at KRUT?
Rutland / Southern Vermont Regional offers both Type I and Type IV deicing fluid on site. KRUT is also designated a cold temperature airport, requiring altitude corrections at or below minus 7 degrees Celsius. Climate data from the source agency estimates that January averages roughly 30 days below freezing and about 6 days with snow accumulation of an inch or more. Crews operating into KRUT during winter months should plan for both deicing needs and temperature-based altimetry corrections.
