About Stillwater Regional Airport

Stillwater Regional Airport is the primary airport serving Stillwater, Oklahoma, and the surrounding Payne County region. Established in the early 1940s as a military airfield, the airport began scheduled commercial service in 2016 and marked its tenth anniversary with the opening of a new passenger terminal in August 2026.

Located about 5 km (3 miles) northwest of downtown Stillwater, the airport connects travelers to the American Airlines network through daily nonstop service to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. It is one of only four Oklahoma airports with scheduled commercial air service and supports Oklahoma State University, local businesses, and visitors attending events and game days.

The new terminal covers about 31,375 square feet and offers two gates, a passenger boarding bridge, expanded baggage claim with a circulating carousel, and additional seating. Free parking, short security lines, free Wi-Fi, nursing rooms, a sensory room, family restrooms, and an animal relief area are among its passenger amenities.

Ground transportation options include rental cars from on-site agencies, ride-share services, taxis, and the OSU/Stillwater Community Transit System, which links the airport to the Oklahoma State University campus and the wider Stillwater area. The short distance to downtown and the university makes it convenient to reach the city center, campus, and onward destinations across north-central Oklahoma.
