Crystal River Airport (ICAO: KCGC, FAA LID: CGC) is a public airport located three miles (5 km) southeast of the central business district of Crystal River, in Citrus County, Florida, United States. It is owned by Citrus County.[1]

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Crystal River Airport is assigned CGC by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA (which assigned CGC to Cape Gloucester, Papua New Guinea).[2][3]
