Morrisville–Stowe State Airport (IATA: MVL, ICAO: KMVL, FAA LID: MVL) is a public airport located two miles (3 km) southwest of the central business district of Morrisville, a village in Lamoille County, Vermont, United States. It is owned by the State of Vermont.[1] The airport had scheduled passenger airline service via Air Vermont in the 1980s.

In April 2014, the airport closed for four months of improvements, including rebuilding the runway and lighting; it reopened on August 1, with private company Stowe Aviation operating the facility.[2] The improvements were funded by a $4 million federal grant from the Airport Improvement Project, and made up the first phase of Stowe Aviation's planned upgrades, with $20 million more in private investment to be used to build a new terminal building, maintenance facility, and other supporting infrastructure.[2]

Commercial air service is scheduled to return in December 2015, when Tradewind Aviation begins service to Westchester County Airport in White Plains, New York.[3]
