OurAirports identifies Castle Airport (KMER) as a medium airport in Merced, California, United States, serving the Merced area. Its source identifiers are MER, KMER. The source does not mark scheduled passenger service, which does not determine private-charter access.
For preliminary comparison, the same source lists a longest published runway of 11,802 feet and a field elevation of 191 feet. Those values are reference fields, not an operating approval. Before a trip is proposed, the direct air carrier must confirm airport status and access, usable runway length and surface, aircraft performance, payload, weather, current notices, parking, fuel, customs when applicable, and handling for the requested date.
For a useful review, provide the passenger count, baggage, pets, accessibility needs, preferred schedule, and exact ground destination. Jet Partners acts as an air charter broker and does not operate aircraft; a licensed direct air carrier controls and operates the flight. Aircraft, airport suitability, availability, operator, payment, change, and cancellation terms are confirmed in writing for the specific trip.
Reference coordinates, classification, elevation, and published runway length shown on this page come from OurAirports open data for source ident KMER. Reference fields can change and do not confirm airport status, charter access, or operator acceptance.
Planning references: the FAA Chart Supplement search and NOTAM Search. These are research starting points, not confirmation that KMER accepts charter operations. Current access and mission suitability require direct-carrier confirmation.
