Frequently asked questions
Is there customs service at KMLJ?
Baldwin County Regional does not have onsite customs processing. The nearest customs facility is at KMCN, located approximately 34.49 nautical miles away. Flights requiring customs clearance should plan to route through that airport instead. Dispatchers should confirm hours and procedures at KMCN in advance, since arrangements at Baldwin County Regional itself are not available for international clearance.
What is the runway length at KMLJ?
KMLJ has a single paved runway, 10/28, measuring 5,506 feet long and 100 feet wide with an asphalt surface. This is also the airport's maximum paved runway length, so no other surface offers a longer option.
