## Description

Owens Field — formally Jim Hamilton–L.B. Owens Airport (IATA: CUB, ICAO: KCUB) — is a county-owned general aviation reliever field about 3 km south of downtown Columbia, South Carolina. Its single asphalt runway 13/31 runs 1,527 metres and handles roughly 25,000 movements a year, more than 80% private and business flying with the remainder air taxi and military; there are no scheduled passenger or cargo services. The airport has no freight terminal, customs post or cargo handler. Air cargo for the Columbia midlands moves through Columbia Metropolitan Airport (CAE) about 10 km away — a UPS regional hub that processes well over 160,000 tonnes of air freight a year and ranks as South Carolina's busiest cargo airport.
