Charles M. Schulz - Sonoma County Airport (IATA: STS, ICAO: KSTS) is an airport located a few miles northwest of Santa Rosa serving Sonoma County and the surrounding areas of Wine Country in California. The airport has 2 runways. Currently, it is exclusively used for general aviation, but has in the past and will in the future be served by commercial airlines. The last commercial airline service was by United Express and was cancelled due to low ridership, and recently Horizon Air planned on returning commercial aviation service to Santa Rosa by having flights to Seattle-Tacoma and Los Angeles beginning on March 20th, 2007.
The airport is named after Charles M. Schulz, the famed cartoonist of the Peanuts comic strip. The airport's amusing logo features Snoopy in goggles and scarf, taking to the skies on top of his red doghouse.
