Why Summit Airport serves central Delaware's growing corridor
Middletown has transformed from a quiet agricultural town into one of the fastest-growing communities between Philadelphia and Dover, driven by a residential construction boom that has tripled the population in two decades. The cost of a private jet from Summit Airport reflects a market that sits in a geographic sweet spot: too far south for Philadelphia's airports to be convenient, too far north for Dover, and positioned directly on the Route 301 corridor that connects Delaware's two largest population centers.
Summit Airport is a privately owned, pilot-friendly facility with a well-maintained runway and a community of based aircraft owners, corporate operators, and charter travelers who value its uncongested operations and central Delaware location. For executives, business owners, and affluent families in the Middletown-Odessa-Townsend corridor, EVY provides aviation access without driving 30 minutes north to Wilmington (ILG) or 30 minutes south to Dover.
