St. Louis Regional Airport in East Alton is remaining open for essential operations while following all State and FAA directives for safety. Everyone is asked to follow State Stay at Home orders on non-essential activities to keep COVID-19 from spreading. 

“The Airport crew will remain at their posts to make it possible for people to get to family in crisis and for essential service providers and emergency responders to serve the public,” said David Miller, director of aviation. “The office staff is adapting to deal with essential functions.”

 The Airport’s restaurant is currently closed.
