Dickinson Theodore Roosevelt Regional Airport (IATA: DIK, ICAO: KDIK, FAA LID: DIK), formerly Dickinson Municipal Airport, is six miles south of Dickinson, in Stark County, North Dakota. It is owned by the Dickinson Airport Authority.[1]

The airport serves western North Dakota, eastern Montana and northwest South Dakota, home to Theodore Roosevelt National Park. The airport sees one airline, United Express, flying an Embraer Regional-Jet (ERJ) to Denver; Delta Connection flew to Minneapolis-St. Paul until November 30, 2015.[4] The first airline flights were Frontier DC-3s in 1959.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2021–2025 categorized it as a non-hub primary commercial service facility.[5]
