San Antonio Intl is in San Antonio, Texas. The field elevation is 809.1 ft MSL. It has three runways. The longest is 8,505 ft. Tower service is available 24 hours. Three ILS approaches are published for runway ends 04, 13R and 31L.
Pattern altitude is not published in the facts, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport sits inside Class C airspace. Expect a busy arrival and departure flow. Noise-sensitive areas surround the airport on all sides. Plan a clean climb. Keep power changes modest over populated areas.
On field, Signature Aviation - South carries 100LL and Jet A. Million Air carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Skyplace carries 100LL, Jet A and Jet A Prist. Signature Aviation - North carries 100LL and Jet A. A few operational notes matter here. Runway 04 taxiing northeast bound may come with hold short instructions for 31L. Taxiway N southwest bound may also come with hold short instructions for 31R. Birds are reported in the area. Keep a sharp scan on departure and arrival.
