Yeager Airport

100 Airport Rd, Charleston, WV
Web: Visit this site »
 

Yeager Airport, renamed in 1985 to honor Brigadier General Charles "Chuck" Yeager, is located outside of Charleston, W. Va. along the Elk River. Given the area's mountainous terrain, 9,000,000 cubic yards of earth and rock from over 360 mountain acres had to be cleared and graded to make way for the airport when it was constructed in the 1940s. The airport provides nonstop service to 10 U.S. destinations, including Chicago and Atlanta, and is served primarily by the major airlines' regional jet services. In addition, Independence Air, a low-fare airline, recently launched a nonstop flight to Washington, D.C. from Yeager Airport.
