The airport grounds cover about 2,600 acres, with 2 runways. MLU is owned and operated by the City of Monroe and has provided commercial passenger services for north-east Louisiana since 1929. It is the birthplace of Delta Airlines. The Monroe area has a rich history - the oldest human dwelling site in North America was discovered at Poverty Point, located near Monroe.
