✈️ Primary Runway Reopened & Commercial Flights Resumed!
The planned 21-day primary runway closure at Hays Regional Airport (HYS) has officially concluded on schedule, and SkyWest/United commercial passenger flights have resumed today, August 24.
While work on the full reconstruction of our crosswind runway continues to bring our facilities up to current FAA safety standards, our main runway is back open for scheduled service and general aviation.
Thank you for your patience and support as we invest in the safety, connectivity, and future of Northwest Kansas aviation!
