Welcome
The Joplin Regional Airport has undergone dramatic changes over the last 6 years with the replacement of the 50 year old Air Traffic Control Tower and the Commercial Terminal facilities. The new ATC facility is a high-tech 90-foot structure, complete with a 2,100 square-foot base building. The tower houses all necessary equipment and controller facilities for air traffic control and monitoring, while the base building houses FAA field technicians and navigational equipment.
Travelers seek convenience and affordability when flying, and the new $15 million terminal facility provides all of the services of a large airport. Non-stop regional jet service to Denver International Airport and Chicago O'Hare is provided by Skywest Airlines with flights offered daily. With gasoline prices still unsteady, flying Joplin offers passengers a cost savings in comparison to other airports to make connections. Plus in Joplin, there is no fee for parking, covered curbside loading and unloading, and check-in and security procedures are much more convenient. Hertz and Avis rental cars are available on-site.
