Easton Airport
Walk & Talk
This year we walk on the runway!
JOIN US FOR A TOUR OF YOUR COMMUNITY AIRPORT!
Unfortunately, we must cancel the Walk & Talk scheduled for May 16. Please join us May 30th.
Easton Airport is excited to invite the public to “Walk & Talk” at the airport. The event offers guests an on-site trek of the community airport. This year, we have a rare opportunity to bring you out on the runway while it is closed during airfield construction. We will talk about our Airfield Modernization Program and daily operations at the airport.
Pre-registration for “Walk & Talk” is requested so we can share important information prior to arriving at the airport. Please click the link below and fill out the form to RSVP. Continue scrolling for more info.
LOCATION: Easton Airport Terminal, 29137 Newnam Road, Easton, MD 21601
EVENT TIME: 10 am – noon
DATES: May 30, 2024
Note: We have made a change to the event schedule. Runway 4/22 will NOT be closed on May 16 and winds are too high for a tour. We have cancelled that date.
MORE EVENT DETAILS
The groups will meet at the terminal building (29137 Newnam Road, Easton, MD 21601) and then escorted beyond the gates to walk the ramp, taxiways, and closed portion of runway 4/22. During the tour, management will talk about hangars, aircraft, operations, and other equipment that you we see. A major focus of the conversation will focus on the Airfield Modernization Program and ongoing construction.
Please note, no 4-legged friends are permitted on the tour. Children must be supervised by a parent/guardian at all times. Weather related cancellations will be announced via email in advance with make-up dates to be determined. Walks start at 10 a.m. and finish by noon.

Comfortable walking shoes, camera, sunscreen, and weather appropriate clothes are the only other things needed to enjoy a morning on the community airfield.
MORE EVENT DETAILS
The group will be taken beyond the gates to do a 1-mile walking loop. During the tour, management will make stops to talk about hangars, aircraft, operations, and other equipment that we see. You will get a behind the scenes look at airport operations and understand more about the business side of aviation. Management hopes the walks help the community get a new perspective of the airport, learn about our history, and see how it has become the “Aviation Gateway to the Eastern Shore” over the years.
