General Information
Learn more about the Sacramento County Airport System, our airports and our mission.
The Sacramento County Airport System is owned and operated by the County of Sacramento. As an enterprise operation that is not supported by the Sacramento County general fund (local tax dollars), it must fund itself with the revenues it generates.
Four airports comprise the Sacramento County Airport System:
- Sacramento International Airport – focus on passenger aviation
- Mather Airport – focus on cargo aviation
- Executive Airport – focus on general aviation
- Franklin Field – focus on general aviation training activities
Each of the airports support the others in the system by having a strategic focus. This enables the airports to focus on the uses that are best suited for their facilities, services and customers.
Mission, Vision & Values
Our Mission: To put people at the center of every trip, every experience, every day.
