Panama City-Bay County International Airport (IATA: PFN, ICAO: KPFN, FAA LID: PFN) is a former public use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) northwest of the central business district of Panama City, in Bay County, Florida, United States. It was owned and operated by the Panama City-Bay County Airport and Industrial District. All commercial airline services were relocated to the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport on May 22, 2010, but the airfield continued to service general aviation aircraft until October 1, 2010. The former airport grounds will be eventually turned over to LUK-MB1 LLC, which plans to remove the runways and build homes, shops, walking trails and a marina.
