These airports normally have short runways which are sufficient to handle short/medium haul aircraft.
Regional Airports A regional airport is an airport serving traffic within a relatively small or lightly populated geographical area. A regional airport usually does not have customs and immigration facilities to process traffic between countries. Aircraft using these airports tend to be smaller business jets or private aircraft (general aviation).
