Arnold Palmer Regional Airport (IATA: LBE, ICAO: KLBE, FAA LID: LBE), formerly known as Westmoreland County Airport, is a public airport located 35 miles southeast of Pittsburgh, in Latrobe, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, USA.
The airport has two runways. It is primarily used for general aviation. However, the airport is served by one commercial airline, Northwest Airlink, as a reliever for Pittsburgh International Airport on the other side of the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. The airport also had regional service by US Airways to Pittsburgh International Airport, until the company's bankruptcy. Northwest/Delta will end its daily service to Detroit on July 31, 2009 due to low yields leaving the airport with no commercial service.
The Airport features one terminal building with one baggage claim. All parking at the airport is free.
