Oconee County Regional Airport (IATA: CEU, ICAO: KCEU, FAA LID: CEU) is a county-owned municipal airport in Oconee County, South Carolina, 3 miles (4.8 km) west of Clemson. Clemson University's Flying Club and the Flying Tigers Skydiving Club are based at the airport. During football season, the airport sees a spike in activity, due to its proximity to the University and Memorial Stadium.

Facilities and aircraft

Oconee County Regional Airport covers an area of 262 acres (106 ha) at an elevation of 892 feet (272 m) above mean sea level. It has one asphalt paved runway designated 7/25 which measures 5,000 by 100 feet (1,524 x 30 m).

The airport has plans to extend west the existing runway to an ultimate length of 6,000 ft. This would require the repositioning of Shiloh Road in Oconee County.
