Lawton-Fort Sill Rgnl Airport sits in Lawton, Oklahoma. Field elevation is 1,110.3 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 17/35, which is 8,599 ft long. The tower is open from 0800 to 1900.

When the tower is closed, runway and taxiway lighting is still available. The published remarks also note that ARFF is available through Fort Sill Approach after tower hours. That matters if you are planning a late arrival or departure. The airport sits in a controlled environment tied to Fort Sill procedures, so check current ATC and airport notes before you go. For any clearance delivery details after hours, use the current Chart Supplement or contact Fort Worth ARTCC directly. The runway is long enough for a wide range of aircraft. First-time visitors should brief the lighting setup and after-hours procedures before taxi.
