About New Braunfels Municipal Airport
New Braunfels National Airport (ICAO: KBAZ, FAA LID: BAZ) is a public use airport in Guadalupe County, Texas, United States. It is owned by the city of New Braunfels and located four nautical miles (5 mi, 7 km) east of its central business district. Formerly known as New Braunfels Regional Airport, it is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned BAZ by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA (which assigned BAZ to Barcelos Airport in Barcelos, Amazonas, Brazil).
From 1940 to 1967, it operated as Clear Springs Air Force Base.
