The facility was called Garden City Army Airfield. The main Garden City Army Airfield and its auxiliaries closed in November 1945 and were declared excess by the military on 18 May 1947. Civil authorities developed the main airfield into Garden City Regional Airport. Continental DC-3s landed at GCK from about 1946 until replaced by Central in 1961; successor Frontier's Convairs left around 1970. Earlier, Continental had landed at the old municipal airport three miles east of town. Garden City Regional Airport's status as former Garden City AAF made it important during the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. When orders were dispatched to ground all domestic flights, three large jets were told to land at GCRA, the closest airport large enough for them. The airport had no stairs for large airliners and the passengers had to be evacuated by Garden City Fire Department ladder trucks.[6] In December 2011 the EAS program awarded American Eagle Airlines two daily non-stop flights to Dallas-Fort Worth. FacilitiesThe airport covers 1,848 acres (748 ha) at an elevation of 2,891 feet (881 m). It has two concrete runways: 17/35 is 7,300 by 100 feet (2,225 x 30 m) and 12/30 is 5,700 by 100 feet (1,737 x 30 m).[1] In the year ending August 31, 2010 the airport had 17,260 aircraft operations, average 47 per day: 60% general aviation, 31% airline, and 9% military. 47 aircraft were then based at the airport: 83% single-engine and 17% multi-engine.[1] Airline and destination{{Airport destination list| American Eagle | Dallas/Fort Worth }} Statistics{{Bar graph| title = Carrier shares: (Aug 2016 - Jul 2017)[10] | bar_width = 20 | width_units = em | label_type = Carrier | data_type = Passengers (arriving and departing) | label1 = ExpressJet | data1 = 36,910 | comment1 = 67.58% | label2 = Envoy Air | data2 = 17,700 | comment = 32.42% }}
