Charles M Schulz Airport (KSTS)
More about Charles M Schulz Airport
Charles M Schulz Airport (KSTS/STS) is Santa Rosa, California’s private-jet access point for travelers using the field to reach Napa Valley.
For a charter arrival, the appeal is the private-aircraft sequence: one handling plan, a short walk from cabin to car, and ground transportation organized around the aircraft rather than a commercial terminal connection. In Santa Rosa, that rhythm suits trips where the first priority is to move cleanly from the ramp into wine country without adding unnecessary airport time.
KSTS supports charter planning for Napa Valley itineraries from Aspen, Bozeman, Cancun, Cape Cod, Courchevel, Geneva, Hilton Head, Ibiza, Kansas City, Lisbon, Martha’s Vineyard, Providenciales, Rome, and San Francisco. The airport’s longest runway is 5,115 ft, a planning fact our team treats as part of the aircraft review rather than a detail to generalize.
Napa County Airport (KAPC), Buchanan Field Airport (KCCR), Oakland International Airport (KOAK), and Hayward Executive Airport (KHWD) also serve Napa Valley. A private traveler may choose KSTS when the trip is anchored in Santa Rosa’s northern Wine Country setting and the preferred arrival experience begins on this side of the region.
Santa Rosa gives the arrival a quieter first impression than a major city gateway: low hills, vineyard country, and a pace that feels immediately Northern California. For travelers whose Napa Valley plans begin with discretion and a well-timed transfer, the field earns its place in the itinerary.
“Our charter desk secures the preferred arrival window and ground transportation timing first; firm dates early help us narrow aircraft and crew options for the Napa Valley routes through KSTS.”
