Terre Haute Regional Airport for a Greencastle Visit

Terre Haute Regional Airport is on the south side of Terre Haute, about four miles from Interstate 70 and five miles from U.S. Highway 41. The address is 581 S. Airport Street, Terre Haute, Indiana 47803.

The airport’s history began in the late 1920s, when Paul Cox and other aviation enthusiasts leased 168 acres to develop a municipal airport. Anton Hulman Jr. donated the present site to the City of Terre Haute in 1943; the original Cox Field closed in December 1959.

The airport is also home to the Air National Guard’s 181st Intelligence Wing and Indiana State University’s Flight Academy. Its primary runway is 9,020 feet long, and its crosswind runway is 7,200 feet long. The airport reports that it has a 24-hour FAA control tower.

Check directly with flight providers before choosing HUF for a passenger trip. The airport describes its activity as general aviation, military operations and university aviation programs, and does not give scheduled passenger destinations or airlines.

Its commercial aviation history includes Great Lakes Aviation operating as United Express from 1995 through summer 1999. That past service does not establish current passenger flights, so confirm what is operating for your travel dates with the airline or aviation provider.

The airport’s fixed-base operator, Hoosier Aviation, offers fuel, tie-downs and weather-planning stations. The airport also says Enterprise rental cars can be arranged through Hoosier Aviation, with cars brought directly to the airport.

Local taxi services include E2 Taxi at (812) 961-8294 and Terre Haute Cab at (812) 232-1122. Parking is free and accessible. Availability and arrangements can change, so check the official site before you go.

For local travel after arrival, getting around Greencastle depends on the transport options available in town.

The airport is four miles from Interstate 70 and five miles from U.S. Highway 41, but those access distances alone do not specify a route to Greencastle.

HUF may suit a trip involving general aviation, military operations or university aviation, which are the airport’s stated areas of service. It is also worth checking if your flight provider can arrange a suitable arrival there and you have confirmed onward transport.

For a scheduled commercial flight, verify airline service before treating the airport as an arrival point. The airport’s history includes past commercial service, but its current description does not give scheduled passenger destinations or airlines.

Terre Haute Regional Airport is about 51 minutes by car from Greencastle Inn, which offers guest rooms.
