Book every printed and digital ad placement at Fayetteville Regional Airport (the commercial gateway to Fort Liberty and the Cape Fear region) through one platform, with transparent pricing, real impression data, and no RFP required.
FAY (Grannis Field) serves ~350K–400K passengers/year with a captive military, healthcare, and university audience that no other North Carolina OOH channel can isolate. Data current as of 2026.
Fayetteville Regional Airport (FAY), officially Grannis Field, is the commercial gateway to one of the most distinctive military, healthcare, and economic regions in the United States: Fort Liberty (formerly Fort Bragg), the largest U.S. Army installation by population.
Home to XVIII Airborne Corps, the 82nd Airborne Division, U.S. Army Special Operations Command, and 50,000+ active-duty personnel plus their families, civilian employees, and contractors.
FAY serves approximately 350,000–400,000 passengers per year through a single, modernized terminal, with passenger volume driven by Fort Liberty rotations, the broader Cape Fear healthcare and education economy (Cape Fear Valley Health, Fayetteville State University, Methodist University, Fayetteville Technical Community College), and inbound business travel to defense contractors throughout the I-95 corridor. For brands building a layered presence across the metro, FAY pairs naturally with outdoor advertising in Fayetteville, NC on the I-95 corridor and Bragg Boulevard.
For brands targeting military personnel and their families, defense contractors, Cape Fear healthcare, North Carolina higher education, and the broader Sandhills business community, FAY delivers a captive, high-influence audience that no other North Carolina OOH channel can isolate.
FAY's terminal advertising program is operated by Clear Channel Airports as the airport's contracted concessionaire. AdQuick partners with Clear Channel and the airport to give advertisers a single-platform path to 100% of printed and digital inventory at FAY, coordinating directly with the operator so you don't have to navigate vendor contracts.
FAY's networked HD digital out-of-home displays span the ticketing lobby, security queue, gate-hold areas, and baggage claim. Because FAY operates a single, compact terminal, digital screen placements deliver near-100% reach of every departing and arriving passenger.
Baggage claim is the highest-dwell zone at FAY. Every arriving passenger waits 6–12 minutes with minimal phone engagement and direct sightlines to advertising. Static and digital units in this zone consistently deliver the strongest recall numbers of any FAY placement type, and they are particularly valuable for reaching incoming military families and contractors arriving at Fort Liberty.
Backlit dioramas and wall-mounted prints in the ticketing lobby, pre-security, and concession areas. These static OOH placements benefit from high dwell time (travelers arrive 60–90 minutes before departure) and are excellent for category-exclusive placements.
Branded charging station advertising puts your brand at the point of need. Travelers spend 10–25 minutes engaged with their device in your branded environment: a captive, low-distraction moment.
Path-of-travel placements between gate seating and aircraft door. Every departing passenger walks past (often twice on delays) in a narrow visual field with no competing media.
FAY's main approach road and parking areas offer billboard advertising, garage wrap, and wayfinding sponsorship opportunities reaching every vehicle entering or exiting the airport.

FAY advertising creative must meet airport operational, safety, and content standards. AdQuick handles spec compliance and operator submission, but the high-level requirements are below.
FAY does not accept creative containing:
Note for military and defense advertisers: Recruiting, veteran services, and military family product messaging is welcomed at FAY. Advertisers using DoD imagery, unit insignia, or official military endorsements should be prepared to provide documentation. AdQuick reviews military-aligned creative for content compliance before submission. Final creative approval typically takes 3–5 business days.
FAY's audience is shaped by one of the most distinctive economic profiles in U.S. regional aviation: a massive Army installation, a regional healthcare hub, and a multi-university higher-education community.

FAY delivers a smaller absolute reach than RDU or CLT but a more concentrated, military- and Cape Fear–specific audience that is essentially impossible to isolate through other airport OOH.
| Channel | Reach | Dwell time | Audience quality | Typical CPM |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FAY airport advertising | 350K–400K / year | 60+ min | Military, healthcare, university, defense B2B | $9–$22 |
| Fayetteville NC billboards | High volume | 3–8 sec | Broad commuter / military families | $4–$8 |
| Fayetteville NC transit shelters | Moderate | 30–60 sec | Urban commuter | $5–$10 |
| Raleigh-Durham (RDU) airport | 14M+ / year | 75+ min | Business/leisure mix | $11–$26 |
| Charlotte Douglas (CLT) airport | 50M+ / year | 75+ min | Heavy hub/connecting mix | $13–$30 |
For brands targeting active-duty military families, Fort Liberty contractors, Cape Fear healthcare patients, or Sandhills B2B, FAY is the most efficient airport buy in North Carolina.
AdQuick's measurement suite closes the loop between airport spend and business outcomes. Available for FAY campaigns:
Every FAY campaign can be measured against the same outcomes you track for digital media: impression delivery, foot traffic, app installs, and brand-lift.
All measurement is delivered through the AdQuick platform with weekly campaign updates.
There are several "Fayetteville" airports in U.S. search results, and they are completely distinct markets:
Fayetteville, North Carolina. Serves Fort Liberty and the Cape Fear region. This is the airport this page covers.
Serves Fayetteville and Bentonville, AR: the Walmart, Tyson, and J.B. Hunt corridor. Completely different market and audience.
Fayetteville, AR. Small general aviation field; not a commercial advertising market.
If your campaign is targeting Walmart HQ, Bentonville, or Northwest Arkansas, you want XNA, not FAY. AdQuick can build campaigns for both, but the audiences, advertisers, and inventory are unrelated.
