Malden Regional Airport (MAW)

Malden Regional Airport is a public-use general aviation airport serving the city of Malden and the wider Bootheel region of southeastern Missouri. Opened in 1941 and owned by the City of Malden, the airport supports private, business, agricultural and training flights rather than scheduled airline service. Located approximately three miles north of downtown Malden, the airport features two asphalt runways and a compact ground-side area with fuel, ramp parking, tiedowns and hangars. The on-site FBO, First Flight, offers a passenger terminal and lounge, a pilots lounge, courtesy cars and supporting aviation services. The airport sits in the Central Time Zone and has no control tower; pilots use the common traffic advisory frequency, and instrument approaches serve several runways. Its position near U.S. Route 62 provides convenient road access to Malden and nearby communities including Dexter, Kennett, Gideon and Poplar Bluff. For pilots and private travelers, Malden Regional Airport functions as a practical regional gateway with straightforward facilities and direct access to local roads for continuing journeys across southeastern Missouri.
