The northern Virginia Washington Manassas Airport has received formal certification from the FAA and is now allowed to schedule commercial air service.
For the last three years the City of Manassas has been expanding and renovating its airport so as to enable it to accommodate commercial aircraft. The airport, which was originally named the Manassas Regional Airport, was renamed earlier this year to the Washington Manassas Airport as a precursor to its planned reconfiguration into an air travel hub for the Washington, D.C. metro area.
The Part 139 Airport Operating Certification was recently presented to airport officials by Dan Edwards, the FAA Associate Administrator for Airports during a ceremony at the airport’s Terminal 1.
Expansion projects at public venues often require special signage, obtainable from a local Print shop, to redirect visitors
Manassas, which is approximately 40 miles from Washington D.C., is set to be home to the fourth airport serving the nation’s capital, joining Washington Dulles, Baltimore/Washington and Reagan National airports.
Although no passenger airline has committed to serving Manassas, the city is getting the airport ready with two major infrastructure projects. A groundbreaking will soon take place on a modernized passenger terminal and a new control tower. The new terminal is expected to be open for operations in autumn of 2027 at which point the airport will be able to begin commercial service.
It is expected that the new tower will open in 2029.
