Built in 1927 as a civil airport, Page Field was appropriated by the War Department at the beginning of World War II. Renamed Fort Myers Army Air Field and later, Page Field Army Airfield, it was used by the United States Army Air Forces Third Air Force for antisubmarine patrols and conventional bomber training in the B-24 Liberator. The facility was returned to civil control of the State of Florida and then Lee County shortly after the end of the war.
The June 1949 chart shows 5000-ft runway 4, 4960-ft runway 9 and 5030-ft runway 13.
National Airlines started flights at Page Field in the 1930s; in April 1957 they were still the only airline, with six departures a day. In the 1950s the army barracks were replaced with a small terminal on the south side of the field, which was expanded in 1960. A new terminal was built in the mid-1970s on the north side of Page Field. After deregulation of the airline industry in 1978 the terminal and airfield were too small, and in 1983 airline flights moved to the new Southwest Florida Regional Airport, now called Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW). Page Field is a designated FAA reliever airport for RSW and has only general aviation and business traffic.
Page Field covers 670 acres (271 ha) at an elevation of 17 feet (5 m). It has two asphalt runways: 5/23 is 6,406 by 150 feet (1,953 x 46 m) and 13/31 is 4,912 by 150 feet (1,497 x 46 m).
