Northwest Arkansas National Airport (IATA: XNA, ICAO: KXNA, FAA LID: XNA) in Northwest Arkansas[1] is a public-use airport located in Benton County, Arkansas, serving the rapidly growing Northwest Arkansas region, 15 nautical miles (28 km; 17 mi) northwest of Fayetteville[1] and 10 nautical miles (19 km; 12 mi) northwest of Springdale.[3] Since its opening in 1998, XNA has become a vital transportation hub, reflecting the area's economic expansion and increasing travel demands.
XNA covers 2,680 acres (1,085 ha) of land and has two parallel 8,800 foot (2,682 m) runways.[1]
XNA's operations benefit significantly from its proximity to the headquarters of major corporations, including Walmart in Bentonville, Tyson Foods in Springdale, and J.B. Hunt Transport Services in Lowell. The airport is also frequently utilized by athletic teams from the University of Arkansas for away games and by Razorback opponents visiting Fayetteville.
XNA is included in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2019–2023, in which it is categorized as a small-hub primary commercial service facility.[4]
