Welcome to KATY

The Watertown Regional Airport is located in Watertown South Dakota on the shores of Lake Kampeska and Lake Pelican. In the 1940's the Army Air Force built the airport as a cold weather bomber training base and thoughout the years the airport has grown into one of the largest post WWII airports in our region. Boasting some of the longest runways in South Dakota and providing two non-stop air services via Northwest Airlink to Minneapolis and Pierre on a daily basis, the Watertown Regional Airport is your full service Commercial Airport as well as providing top quality general aviation services with our Fixed Based Operator, AirCo. Aviation. You will find what you are looking for here.

Travel Tips

3-1-1 for carry-ons = 3 ounce bottle or less (by volume) ; 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; 1 bag per passenger placed in screening bin. One-quart bag per person limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring. 3 oz. container size is a security measure.

Consolidate bottles into one bag and X-ray separately to speed screening.

Be prepared. Each time TSA searches a carry-on it slows down the line. Practicing 3-1-1 will ensure a faster and easier checkpoint experience.

3-1-1 is for short trips. If in doubt, put your liquids in checked luggage.

Declare larger liquids. Medications, baby formula and food, breast milk, and juice are allowed in reasonable quantities exceeding three ounces and are not required to be in the zip-top bag. Declare these items for inspection at the checkpoint.

Come early and be patient. Heavy travel volumes and the enhanced security process may mean longer lines at security checkpoints.

TSA working with our partners. TSA works with airlines and airports to anticipate peak traffic and be ready for the traveling public.

Why Fly ATY ?

Flying out of Watertown can save you Time and Money!

The Watertown Regional Airport is your best option in air travel. There is no need to drive long distances to Sioux Falls or Minneapolis to get great deals on airfare. You may be surprised, but departing out of Watertown is more convenient, quicker, and cheaper than other airports in the area!

When you think about air travel out of a small regional airport, you might think you will have to fly in small propel driven aircraft, cramped spaces, no lavatories, no flight attendants etc, BUT flying out of Watertown you fly in style on a Saab 340 C model.

The Saab 340 is one the latest aircraft from Saab aircraft, and it has the power, performance, and economic prowess to provide Watertown the competitive advantage over other airports in South Dakota.
