About Anderson Regional Airport FBO
Anderson Regional Airport operates a county-owned FBO that receives over 14,000 visitors annually, making it one of the busiest airports in upstate South Carolina. The facility is located at 5805 Airport Road on the southwest side of Anderson, providing aviation services for the surrounding Anderson County area. As a Titan Aviation (Shell) fuel distributor, the airport offers high-grade aviation fuel through a well-trained line staff that handles fueling, aircraft storage, and ground support. Amenities include a pilot lounge, a quiet room for rest, a conference room for meetings, flight planning and catering coordination, a free crew car, and rental car arrangements. The FBO serves the aviation needs of businesses, corporate executive teams, and visitors to the Anderson County region. Anderson Regional's runway (5,500 feet) accommodates light jets and some midsize business jets, though larger aircraft may face restrictions. The airport is located approximately 30 miles southwest of Greenville, South Carolina, and about 70 miles northeast of Atlanta, Georgia. Interstate 85 runs through the area, providing highway connections in both directions. Clemson University is approximately 18 miles west of the airport, making this a practical arrival point for visitors to the university and its sporting events. Lake Hartwell, a popular recreational area on the Georgia-South Carolina border, is nearby. For charter passengers heading to upstate South Carolina, Anderson Regional provides a functional FBO with competitive fuel prices and personal service at an uncongested airport. The county ownership keeps costs reasonable, and the small-airport atmosphere means fast turnarounds. The free crew car is a practical benefit for passengers or crew needing to make a quick trip into town.
