Columbus Airport is owned and operated by the Columbus Airport Commission and originally began as a facility to provide airmail service to Columbus, Georgia area. CSG became one of the few facilities that came into existence without a FAA hearing. Delta Airlines initiated jet air service to Columbus in 1968 and Eastern Airlines introduced service a year later. In 1991, Columbus Airport completed a modern two-story terminal. Currently, the airport has a large percentage of general aviation traffic and one carrier (Delta Connection/ ExpressJet) that provides commercial routes to the city. Since 1941, the Columbus Airport has provided business and recreational travelers in Columbus and neighboring areas with connections to regional and international airports. As the Columbus Airport Director, I invite you to take advantage of the services and commitment we offer. Since we are smaller than an airport in a large city, you’ll receive faster, more personal service, giving you more time to prepare for your trip and less time you’ll have to spend in the car. Most importantly to you, our travelers will only have to go through the security checkpoint and check their bags once, a v...ast improvement over past check-in and U.S. Customs policies. Whether you are traveling for business or leisure — again, welcome to Columbus Airport. We are working to ensure that your airport experience is pleasant and efficient, and we hope you will have an opportunity to explore all that the City of Columbus has to offer. We look forward to helping you reach your destination.
