Location

Lansing, United States

Capital Region International Airport (LAN/KLAN) is a public airport serving Lansing, Michigan, and the surrounding mid-Michigan region. It functions as the primary commercial air gateway for the state capital and nearby communities including East Lansing, home of Michigan State University. The airport offers a modest selection of nonstop flights to major hub cities, connecting mid-Michigan passengers to broader domestic and international networks. It is owned and operated by the Capital Region Airport Authority. While smaller in scale compared to Detroit Metropolitan Airport, LAN provides a convenient local option that reduces travel time for residents who would otherwise face a roughly 90-minute drive to Detroit.
