This communication is a follow-up to our November 3rd notice regarding staffing shortages at the Oxnard Air Traffic Control Tower. Beginning in November, the Oxnard tower was experiencing staffing shortages and was operating on a shortened schedule on Wednesdays and Saturdays only. We are pleased to share that the Oxnard Tower now has additional, temporary staff. The tower will now operate daily at their regular hours, which are from 7 a.m. – 9 p.m. This is expected to continue through late March.
As a reminder, it is important to note that the towers at Camarillo and Oxnard Airports operate under the jurisdiction of the Federal Aviation Administration and not under the authority of the County of Ventura.
We will continue to provide updates with any additional changes that may arise.
