Southwest Georgia Regional Airport

Southwest Georgia Regional Airport, serving Albany, Georgia, sits at a low 197 feet above sea level, well within the flatter coastal plain covering much of the state's southern half. Two runways give it capacity beyond what a single-runway airport could offer a city of Albany's size. The name reflects a role serving the wider southwest Georgia area rather than Albany alone, since surrounding counties have few other options for commercial air travel. This agricultural part of the state gets a direct medium-airport connection to Atlanta, filling a gap that would otherwise mean a long drive north.
