Arrival
Landing at Northwest Arkansas
Northwest Arkansas sits in Arkansas at 36.28 degrees north, 94.31 degrees west. Charter traffic works through Northwest Arkansas National, KXNA.
You have 4 fields to choose between: Northwest Arkansas National (KXNA), Louise M Thaden Field Bentonville (KVBT), Drake Field Fayetteville (KFYV) and Bill and Hillary Clinton National Little Rock (KLIT). They are not interchangeable. Runway length decides which aircraft can use each one, customs facilities decide which can take an international arrival, and ground transfer time to your actual destination often matters more than either.
Ask any operator to confirm three things for your date before you commit: ramp and overnight parking availability, customs hours if you are arriving internationally, and whether the aircraft they are offering has an approved crew for the field. The third one catches people out at terrain constrained airports where the operator needs a specific qualification.
