York Airport (IATA: THV, ICAO: KTHV) is a public airport located seven miles (11 km) southwest of the city of York in York County, Pennsylvania, USA.
It is the second airport to bear the name. The first one, which this one replaced when it closed sometime between 1953 and 1957, was located near the intersection of Roosevelt Ave and Wood Street in York, PA.[1]
