Millville Municipal Airport (IATA: MIV, ICAO: KMIV, FAA LID: MIV) is a public airport located three miles (5 km) southwest of the central business district of Millville, a city in Cumberland County, New Jersey, United States.

The airport is operated by the Delaware River and Bay Authority. It was dubbed "America's First Defense Airport" because of the nearly 1,500 pilots who trained in gunnery practice at the airport with the Republic P-47 "Thunderbolt" plane during World War II.

After the end of World War II, the buildings of Millville Airport accommodated returning veterans. By the end of the 1970s, these buildings were no longer of much use. Millville Airport is now used for general aviation. Dallas Airmotive Exists at Millville.
