Morgantown Municipal Airport (IATA: MGW, ICAO: KMGW, FAA LID: MGW) is three miles east of Morgantown, in Monongalia County, West Virginia. It is also known as Walter L. Bill Hart Field. It sees one passenger airline, United Express operated by Skywest Airlines, which is subsidized by the Essential Air Service program. The FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2021–2025 categorized it as a nonprimary commercial service airport (fewer than 10,000 enplanements per year). The airport's runway cannot handle larger airplanes, but it has filed a request with the Federal Aviation Administration to lengthen the runway by 1,001 feet (305 m).
