Sonoma County Airport
Charles M. Schulz–Sonoma County: Santa Rosa's field, and the North Bay's airport for Sonoma wine country.

Charles M. Schulz was a longtime Santa Rosa resident, and the North Bay's airport carries his name. Sonoma County Airport, north of San Francisco, is the only field in the region with scheduled service. The private traffic comes for Sonoma and the Russian River wine country without the drive up from the Bay.
Harvest
STS mixes a little commercial service with steady private and business flying. It is busiest around harvest and the events calendar, and in those weeks a date that can move is the lever on price. Snoopy, as the Flying Ace, turns up around the terminal.
On the field
As of mid-2026 the FBOs at Sonoma County include the Sonoma Jet Center, established here in 2005, and KaiserAir's Santa Rosa Jet Center. Both are on the general-aviation side of the field.
Army airfield to Schulz
The field traces to a World War II Army airfield and grew into the North Bay's regional airport. In 2000 it took the name of Charles M. Schulz, whose Peanuts strip made Snoopy a local icon.
FBO and history details were checked mid-2026 against the airport's and operators' own published information. Tenants change, so confirm the departure terminal with your operator.
