Athens Ben Epps Airport — Athens, United States

Athens Ben Epps Airport, serving Athens, Georgia, works with two runways, 808 feet above sea level, adding more capacity than many small college-town airports of similar size. Athens sits in the Piedmont region of northeastern Georgia, home to a major state university that drives much of the area's population and travel demand. General aviation, charter flights, and small commercial operations dominate the schedule here rather than large-scale scheduled airline service, leaving most long-distance travelers to drive the roughly hour-plus trip to Atlanta instead.
