Joplin, United States
Joplin Regional Airport (JLN/KJLN) is a public airport located approximately five miles north of downtown Joplin, Missouri. It serves as the primary commercial service airport for the four-state region encompassing southwestern Missouri, southeastern Kansas, northeastern Oklahoma, and northwestern Arkansas. The airport is owned and operated by the City of Joplin and offers scheduled commercial passenger service alongside general aviation activity.

The facility supports both commercial aviation and a busy general aviation community reflecting the industrial and commercial character of the Joplin metro area.
