Airport contact
City-owned reliever airport for Charlotte Douglas Intl, renamed in 2018 for longtime Concord mayor Scott Padgett; scheduled service is low-cost only (Allegiant Air plus Avelo Airlines, which opened an official crew base at JQF in March 2025), but the airport's dominant identity is as general-aviation home base for NASCAR race teams (Hendrick Motorsports is headquartered in Concord itself, with Joe Gibbs Racing, Team Penske, and Haas Factory Team - the 2025 successor to Stewart-Haas Racing - among the nearby teams basing aircraft here) and the Victory Air charter fleet, with motorsports traffic estimated at roughly 60% of airport activity.
