KEXX — Davidson County Executive Airport
Your Fuel Stop on the East Coast Corridor

Running the northeast-to-Florida corridor? Add KEXX to your route.

Davidson County Executive Airport (KEXX) sits at the geographic center of North Carolina’s Piedmont — directly along the natural routing between the Northeast and Florida. Jet A is competitively priced with no landing fee with minimum fuel purchase, the ramp is uncongested, and the turn is fast. If the math says stop, KEXX makes the stop worth it.

KEXX is a full-service FBO with no commercial traffic, no ramp control requirements, no waiting. Fueling is handled by our Titan ACE Certified crew. Call ahead on the main line or check in on UNICOM 122.800 — the crew will have your uplift staged and be on the ramp when you roll in. Block-to-block, KEXX is one of the cleanest quick-turn stops on the east coast corridor.

Need crew cars while your pax step off for a break? KEXX provides complimentary crew cars for short turnarounds. The field sits minutes from Lexington, NC with direct access to I-85 and I-285 — connecting the airport to the Piedmont Triad’s major business centers and putting ground transport options close at hand. Whether you are running TEB to MCO, HPN to TPA, or anywhere in between, KEXX is the stop that gets you back in the air fast.
