Dawson Community Airport (IATA: GDV, ICAO: KGDV) is a public airport located four miles (6 km) northwest of the central business district (CBD) of Glendive, a city in Dawson County, Montana, USA. The airport covers 413 acres (167 ha) and has two runways. It is mostly used for general aviation, but is also designated to receive commercial service subsidized by the federal Essential Air Service (EAS) program.

Scheduled air service at Glendive ended on March 8, 2008, when Big Sky Airlines (the designated EAS operator) ceased operation. Great Lakes Airlines has been given USDOT approval to take over EAS service between Glendive and Billings, Montana, although a start date for this service has not been established.^[1]
