Salisbury-Ocean City: Wicomico Regional Airport (IATA: SBY, ICAO: KSBY, FAA LID: SBY), or, more succinctly Salisbury Regional Airport,[3] is located in unincorporated Wicomico County, Maryland, 5 miles (8.0 km) southeast from downtown Salisbury, Maryland, United States.

In 1940, Wicomico County and the City of Salisbury begun to construct the airport with the Works Progress Administration.

Officially opened on November 11, 1943,[1] Salisbury was originally leased to the U.S. Navy as a training base during World War II up through 1945.

After the war ended, Airfield Operating Corp. leased the airport beginning commercial activity to Easton, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. Later, in 1949 the City and County resume management of the airport and All American Airways takes over for Chesapeake Airways, later superseded in 1950 by Allegheny Airlines.

After the merger, the airline was renamed Piedmont and it deemed Salisbury as its primary operating base and quickly grew into a large regional carrier.

These multimillion-dollar projects will allow flights using larger aircraft such as regional jets which had previously been unable to operate at the airport due to the short length of the runway.

There is an American Eagle ticket counter and a TSA bag scanning area at the southeast part of the building.

[4] The terminal is surrounded by 6 acres (2.4 ha) of parking apron which services the arriving and departing aircraft.
