Aviation Meets History

Nestled in the heart of Southeast Georgia, our airport is just minutes away from the world-famous Okefenokee Swamp, the largest blackwater swamp in the United States and a natural wonder that draws adventurers, nature lovers, and photographers from around the globe.

​

Our non-towered general aviation airport features three well-maintained runways, making it ideal for flight training, recreational flying, and private travel. Whether you're a student pilot or seasoned aviator, you'll find our airport accessible, friendly, and convenient.

​

 Airport highlights include:

• Affordable AvGas ($5.60) and Jet-A fuel ($5.57)

• Complimentary crew cars for quick local trips

• A unique, retro-style 1958 terminal building full of charm and character

• Close proximity to local dining, lodging, hunting and outdoor attractions

​

With deep roots in aviation history — including service as a WWII training base for P-40 Warhawks and P-51 Mustangs — the Waycross-Ware County Airport isn’t just a stop… it’s a destination.

​

Fly in and experience Southern hospitality, history, and the wild beauty of the Okefenokee. We look forward to welcoming you!
