About the Corona Airport

It may be small, but it's been dubbed the "friendliest little airport in America."

Nestled on approximately 100 acres of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE) land leased to the City of Corona in the Prado Basin lies the small, community-oriented, Corona Municipal Airport. The airport is home to 300-350 general aviation aircraft and is strictly a recreational airport with no commercial flights. Our small airport is extremely active, with approximately 35,000 annual operations.

Because the airport is located on USACOE land and is used for recreational flying only, it's managed by the City of Corona. Throughout the years the Airport has been operated at no cost to the taxpayers. All revenues to operate and maintain it are generated through rental fees and state grants. A major priority is that the airport continues to be safe and self-sustaining.
