Southwest Michigan Regional Airport (IATA: BEH, ICAO: KBEH) is a public airport located 2 miles (4 km) northeast of Benton Harbor and St Joseph in Berrien County, Michigan, USA. It was previously served by Mesaba Airlines, offering multiple daily flights to the Northwest Airlines hub at Detroit. But despite an intense local marketing campaign (utilizing the slogan You Can Get There From Here), the proximity of airports in Chicago, Kalamazoo and South Bend, Indiana siphoned business from BEH and service was discontinued. The airport has spent most of the current decade without commercial air service. It is used primarily by general aviation and corporate clients.
