## Description

Visitors reach Asheville by air in growing numbers; the region's craft beer, however, leaves by truck. Asheville Regional (IATA: AVL, ICAO: KAVL) has become one of the Southeast's fastest-growing passenger airports with Allegiant, American, Delta and others, yet it hosts no integrator base. Freight from the Blue Ridge foothills rolls down I-26 and I-40 to Charlotte (IATA: CLT) or the FedEx hub at Greensboro (IATA: GSO). After Hurricane Helene in 2024, the field briefly became western North Carolina's air bridge for relief supplies.
