Fly Into Bloomsburg: Gateway to the Susquehanna Valley

Pennsylvania's friendliest municipal airport connecting local businesses, students, and travelers to scenic riverside landings

About Us

Nestled along the sparkling Susquehanna River at 301 Airport Road, Bloomsburg Municipal Airport has quietly become the beating heart of Columbia County's aviation community. What began as a modest grass strip has evolved into a polished 4,000-foot paved runway with a brand-new apron and welcoming FBO that feels more like a neighborhood hangout than a sterile terminal. Pilots rave about the butter-smooth asphalt and the jaw-dropping views as they touch down with the river glinting beside them. Locals know it as the place where parents land for college visits, business owners shortcut their commute to meetings, and families start epic days at nearby Knoebels Amusement Resort. On weekends, the EAA chapter fires up Young Eagles flights that turn wide-eyed kids into future aviators, while Columbia Aircraft keeps engines purring from its on-field shop. Whether you're a seasoned Mooney pilot completing your 49-state quest or a first-time visitor seeking that perfect Pennsylvania stopover, Bloomsburg Municipal Airport delivers small-town warmth with big-sky convenience.

What We Offer

Full-service FBO amenities greet every arrival with quick-turn fuel, tie-downs, and a spotless pilot lounge stocked with fresh coffee and local snacks. Columbia Aircraft stands ready for engine rebuilds, annual inspections, and avionics upgrades without the big-city wait times. EAA Chapter volunteers host regular Young Eagles rallies and safety seminars that make learning fun for all ages. Need transportation into town? Courtesy cars and local shuttles whisk you to Bloomsburg University, downtown shops, or the legendary Knoebels in minutes. Flight planning is a breeze with free Wi-Fi, current weather briefings, and helpful staff who know every back-road shortcut. For visiting aircraft, the new apron offers easy ramp access and generous parking, while scenic river approaches provide one of Pennsylvania's most photographed arrivals.

"This airport is a huge asset to the town and surrounding area. More so than most realize. This a common destination for local businesses, parents visiting students, people going to Knoebels, and visitors to the fair. BJ, the airport mom, often makes cookies and there are numerous programs introducing young people to aviation in particular and STEM in general. BJs cookies are famous among pilots in the region. This little airport is truly a destination where adventure begins."

"Actually Mooney N57785 . This airport happened to be on my way and I needed a landing in PA to complete my 49th State. Boy was this a golden nugget. The runway is right along a river and smooth as can be imagined. Slight downslope I think to the NE, but careful speed mgmt and precise aim point got to taxi speed by half field. BJ was quickly on the radio asking what I needed, how she could help, etc. she even took my photo ! They have a car and lots of nearby amenities- I’ll use those next time. Thank you BJ and Bloomsburg !"

"I had to put my airplane down quickly because of the weather. Matter of fact is that N13 wasn't even my first alternative choice. It just happened to be right under me when I realized that I had to be on the ground ASAP!! Little I knew that it was going to be the best experience I would have had in my 15 hours long ferry flight. BJ's customer services was amazing and I wished I could have spend more time on the ground. The airport is nice and to my surprise, the views on take off was incredible (RNW27). I will have this airport on my flight plan for now on."
