KORS provides an essential air travel connection for residents and visitors of the San Juan Islands, an archipelago in the Pacific Northwest of the United States between the US state of Washington and Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The airport primarily handles general aviation, small commercial commuter aircraft, and seaplane flights, offering scenic views and convenient access to this beautiful archipelago. According to Orbx, the newest version of KORS features “sloped runways, elevated taxiways, beautiful grass, and mixed dynamic and emissive lighting that bring even further character to this charming airport.”
