Do you have an airline flight to . . . ?
No. Gwinnett County Airport does not have scheduled airline flights. We are a general aviation airport. The primary airline airport for the area is Atlanta-Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. We do have charter companies that can take you around the world on your schedule. You can check our business listings section for contact information.

Where do I go to pick up a passenger?
Because Gwinnett County Airport does not offer scheduled passenger service, there is no centralized passenger terminal.  Businesses or charter companies flying into the airport often drop passengers off at one of the Fixed Base Operators (FBOs) located at the airport. There are currently two FBOs on the airport, Aircraft Specialists Jet Center on the south side of the airport and Gwinnett Aero on the north side. Ask the person you are picking up which business they will be parking at once they arrive at the airport, and then you can contact that business for more specific pick-up information. Please check the business listings section for more information on the FBOs and other airport businesses.

How is the level of activity at the airport measured?  How busy is the airport?
Activity levels at general aviation airports are measured by aircraft operations. An operation is defined by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a takeoff or a landing. So, a “touch and go” conducted by a training aircraft counts as two operations.  In terms of takeoffs and landings, Gwinnett County Airport is the third busiest airport in Georgia behind Atlanta-Hartsfield-Jackson International (Airline Airport) and DeKalb Peachtree Airport (General Aviation).

Can I learn to fly an airplane?

Can I fly out of the airport if I don’t own an airplane? It’s so close to my house.

Is there a restaurant located at the airport?
Definitely. The Flying Machine Restaurant (770.962.2262) is located on the south side of the airport. Check the business listings section for more information.
