McCurtain County Regional is a public-use airport serving Idabel, Oklahoma, identified by the local designator 4O4. It sits at an elevation of 472 feet and does not have an operating control tower, so traffic works on CTAF. A single paved runway, 02/20, measures 5,002 feet by 75 feet with an asphalt surface. The field is not staffed around the clock; attendance runs Monday through Friday from 0700 to 1600. Dispatchers should plan around this schedule when arranging ground support.
McCurtain County Regional stocks both 100LL and Jet A+ fuel for arriving aircraft. Attendance at the field follows a Monday through Friday schedule from 0700 to 1600, outside of which staffing should not be assumed. There is no indication that fuel service operates beyond these attended hours. Crews planning arrivals outside the posted schedule should coordinate in advance rather than assume service availability. The airport's local identifier is 4O4.
McCurtain County Regional has no on-site customs service. The nearest customs facility is at KTKI, located approximately 97.07 nautical miles away. International arrivals into 4O4 must route their clearance through that facility rather than expecting processing at the airport itself. Dispatchers planning international legs into this Idabel, Oklahoma field should build the KTKI routing and any associated timing into their flight planning from the outset.
Business aviation activity at McCurtain County Regional, also known by its local identifier 4O4, totaled 613 operations in 2025 according to FAA TFMSC data, out of 965 annual operations overall. Traffic is not evenly spread across the year; volume concentrates in a stretch of months, with July recording the highest monthly count at 94 operations and February the lowest at 23. Dispatchers scheduling around this Idabel, Oklahoma airport should note this seasonal skew when anticipating ramp and fuel demand.
McCurtain County Regional provides pilot-controlled lighting on its single runway, 02/20. Runway 20 is equipped with an ODALS approach lighting system, while Runway 02 has REIL. Both runway ends carry PAPI visual glideslope indicators, and MIRL medium-intensity runway edge lighting covers the full runway. All of these systems are activated via CTAF, consistent with the airport's non-towered status. Pilots should be prepared to key the appropriate frequency to bring up lighting for night or low-visibility arrivals.
