Pellston Regional Airport (IATA: PLN, ICAO: KPLN), also known as Pellston Regional Airport of Emmet County, is a public airport located one mile (2 km) northwest of Pellston in Emmet County, Michigan, USA. The airport has two runways. It is mostly used for general aviation but also functions as the primary commercial airport for the sparsely populated northern tip of Michigan's Lower Peninsula, owing to its location halfway between the region's primary cities, Petoskey and Cheboygan, as well as its close proximity to the tourist centers of Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island. One commercial airline, Northwest Airlink, currently serves Pellston Regional with three departures and three arrivals daily.
The main passenger terminal was extensively remodeled in 2003. Wireless internet service is available throughout the terminal at no charge to travelers.
