Grand Junction Regional Airport

Grand Junction Regional Airport is publicly owned and operated. The facility is classified by the Federal Aviation Administration as a Class I airport under part 139 of the federal aviation regulations - a Non-Hub Primary with Jet Service. Grand Junction Regional Airport is the premiere facility serving Western Colorado & Eastern Utah. GJT is a designated aviation zone which means that any aircraft manufacturer located in the zone may qualify for a state income tax credit of $1,200 per new employee. This is an incentive program (Colorado Aircraft Manufacturer New Employee Credit) offered by the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade. With GJT's master planned expansion and more than 200 acres available for development, this is an exciting window of opportunity for aviation related businesses and commercial development. In addition to both private and public passengers, the airport is a home delivery terminal for FedEx and UPS cargo.

GJT has two active runways, runway 11/29 and runway 4/22. The primary runway is 11/29, which is capable of handling commercial, military, and general aviation aircraft. The crosswind runway is 4/22, which has been designed to accommodate any propeller aircraft. Runway 11/29 measures 10,501 feet long and 150 feet wide, with a northwest-southeast orientation.
