๐ข Terminal Information
Bisbee Douglas International Airport (KDUG) serves the historic copper mining communities of Bisbee and Douglas in southeastern Arizona, positioned on 3,000 acres at 4,154 feet elevation near the Mexico border with dual runways: a 7,311-foot primary runway 17/35 and a 5,000-foot crosswind runway 8/26. Originally constructed between 1941-1943 as Douglas Army Air Field for World War II bomber training operations using AT-9, AT-17, C-45, and B-25 Mitchell aircraft, the facility transitioned to civilian use in 1949 when the U.S. government transferred ownership to Cochise County as a regional transportation center.
The airport's rich aviation heritage includes significant commercial airline service history, with American Airlines operating transcontinental multi-stop routes using Douglas DC-3, Convair 240, and DC-6 aircraft, while the original Frontier Airlines briefly served the airport in the early 1950s with DC-3 flights connecting Phoenix via Nogales and Tucson. The facility now provides general aviation services, corporate aviation support, and regional connectivity for southeastern Arizona's mining, ranching, and border communities.
Operational services support the region's economic activities including copper mining heritage preservation, cross-border commerce, and tourism to historic Bisbee's Victorian architecture and underground mine tours, while serving Douglas's role as a major port of entry with Mexico. The airport enables access to the Chiricahua Mountains, Coronado National Forest recreational activities, and serves as a strategic aviation link for this remote border region where mining history, international trade, and outdoor recreation converge in Arizona's scenic southeastern corner near the historic copper camps that defined the American Southwest's mining boom era.

๐ข Terminal Information

The airport operates from a single, modern terminal building designed for efficient passenger processing and comfort. Its layout is straightforward and compact, featuring integrated areas for check-in, security screening, and departure gates, all within close proximity. All essential services are contained within this singular structure, eliminating the need for complex inter-terminal connections or transfers. Walking times within the terminal are minimal, typically ranging from 5 to 15 minutes to reach most gates, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience for passengers.\n\nSecurity procedures at ABE adhere to Transportation Security Administration (TSA) standards.

The airport generally experiences reasonable wait times at security checkpoints, rarely exceeding 15-20 minutes even during peak travel periods, benefiting from its well-managed operations and moderate passenger volume.
