Facilities
Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport covers 2,184 acres and has one runway:
★ Runway 16/34: 8,800 x 150 ft. (2,682 x 46 m), Surface: Concrete
Expansion
Due to the rapid growth of Northwest Arkansas, airport officials recently announced the construction of a new concourse costing between $20-$25 million. The new concourse would go east of the upper concourse, allowing the airport to park six to eight additional planes for boarding. The airport currently has 12 airplane parking positions. It will take about three years to complete.[1]
The airport is also currently undergoing a ticket counter expansion, and the planning of two large warehouse additions.
