Tri-State Airport, officially named Milton J. Ferguson Field, serves the greater Huntington metropolitan area at the confluence of West Virginia, Kentucky, and Ohio. Originally established in the mid-20th century, the airport has long served as the primary commercial air gateway for a region spanning three states. It offers a modest but functional facility connecting the Tri-State area to major hub airports across the eastern United States.
- Main Terminal — A single consolidated terminal housing ticketing, security, baggage claim, and all passenger amenities for the airport's limited commercial operations.
- Taxi and rideshare services (Uber, Lyft) available at the terminal curb
- Rental car agencies on-site including Hertz and Enterprise
- Personal vehicle pickup and drop-off at the terminal entrance
- Limited local bus connections via Transit Authority of Tri-State (TATS)
- Courtyard by Marriott Huntington
- Hampton Inn Huntington
- Holiday Inn Express Huntington
- Pullman Plaza Hotel Huntington
Dining options inside the terminal are limited given the airport's small scale, with basic snack and beverage concessions available airside. Travelers are advised to eat before arriving, as the surrounding Huntington area offers a wider variety of local restaurants and chain eateries within a short drive. Downtown Huntington, roughly 10 minutes away, has a growing food scene with local favorites worth exploring.
- Arrive at least 90 minutes before departure — the airport is small but security wait times can occasionally spike.
- Confirm your connecting flight details carefully, as most routes require a connection through a major hub such as Charlotte or Chicago.
- Rental car availability can be limited; book in advance, especially on weekdays when business travelers compete for vehicles.
- Check weather conditions year-round, as Appalachian weather patterns can cause regional delays not reflected in national forecasts.
