About Syracuse Hancock International Airport
Overview
Syracuse Hancock International Airport serves central New York State as a key regional aviation hub. Located in Syracuse at 421 feet mean sea level, the airport provides critical commercial and cargo transportation services for the metropolitan area and surrounding regions.
Flying Conditions
Syracuse experiences significant seasonal weather variations that can impact aviation operations. The airport's elevation and geographic location contribute to potential winter precipitation and reduced visibility, with three runways providing multiple options for approaches under different meteorological conditions.
Notable Features
The airport features three substantial runways with varied lengths and surface compositions: Runway 10/28 is the longest at 9,003 feet with an asphalt surface, while Runway 15/33 offers 7,500 feet of asphalt, and Runway 06/24 provides 3,261 feet of concrete surface. These diverse runway options allow for flexible aircraft operations across different aircraft types and weight classifications.
Approach Considerations
Runway selection will depend on prevailing wind conditions, with the substantial 9,003-foot Runway 10/28 likely offering the most versatile operational capability. Pilots should anticipate potential wind shifts and terrain influences when planning approaches, leveraging the airport's multiple runway configurations to ensure safe landing and takeoff procedures.
