About Tunica Municipal Airport
Tunica Municipal Airport is a public-use regional airport serving Tunica, Mississippi, and the surrounding Mississippi Delta. Located about 2 km east of central Tunica and roughly 64 km south of Memphis, the airport functions mainly as a general aviation and charter gateway for the Tunica Resorts casino area.
The airport opened in 2003 with a 5,500-foot runway and was later extended to its current 8,500 feet. It received FAA Part 139 certification for larger aircraft in 2005, allowing casino charter jets to serve the growing Tunica gaming destination, which remains a key driver of airport traffic.
The single runway, designated 17/35, is asphalt and measures 8,500 by 150 feet. Passenger services are centered on the Tunica Air Center executive terminal, which offers lounges, Wi-Fi, meeting space, catering and fueling for general aviation and charter flights.
Tunica Municipal Airport is reached by road, with access to the Tunica casino resorts within minutes and to Memphis via Highway 61 and surrounding routes. Taxis, private transfers, rental cars and chauffeur services provide onward connections, although scheduled airline service is not currently offered.
