Ottumwa Regional Airport

Ottumwa Regional Airport (KOTM) is a medium airport in Ottumwa, IA. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code KOTM or IATA code OTM. It sits in North America.

Ottumwa Regional Airport is a regional airport primarily serving general aviation, charter, and corporate flight departments. The 6,001-foot runway means it is well-suited as a dedicated bizjet field, free from airline scheduling pressure.

The longest runway measures 6,001 ft (1,829 m), a midsize and super-midsize-class field. Representative aircraft that operate comfortably here include the Citation Longitude, Challenger 350, and Gulfstream G280. In practice this comfortable for most midsize and super-mid charter equipment.

Ottumwa Regional Airport sits near sea level at 845 ft.

Local operations run on America/Chicago. Without scheduled airline traffic, the field tends to be quieter and more flexible for charter and corporate operations — a useful characteristic for early morning, late night, or short-notice flights that would be impractical at a hub.

SkyAccess inventory for KOTM updates continuously as operators publish new empty legs and one-way repositioning trips. Pricing on each leg is available with a free account, and an inventory alert will email you the moment a leg appears on the route you care about.

Regional fields like KOTM are a meaningful share of US private aviation — closer to the trip's actual origin or destination than the nearest major hub, with shorter ramp-to-cabin times that are the main reason owners and brokers prefer them.
