Clermont County Airport in Batavia, Ohio

East Cincinnati's General Aviation Gateway: Clermont County Airport

Clermont County Airport serves the fast-growing eastern Cincinnati suburban region, providing general aviation access to one of Ohio's most rapidly developing counties. Clermont County has transformed over the past several decades from a rural farming community into a suburban extension of Cincinnati, and its airport has grown alongside that transition — serving the business aviation, recreational flying, and flight training needs of a county that now houses significant residential, commercial, and light industrial activity east of the city.

The airport accommodates a wide range of general aviation aircraft from light trainers to turboprop business planes, with FBO services and hangars serving both based aircraft owners and transient traffic. Its location east of Cincinnati makes it a practical alternative to Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport for private pilots and charter users who want to avoid the complexity and cost of flying into a major hub. Instrument approaches and a paved runway make Clermont County Airport an all-weather general aviation option for the region.
