Brunswick Executive Airport (IATA: NHZ, ICAO: KBXM, FAA LID: BXM) is a public use general aviation airport located 2 nmi (3.7 km) southeast of the central business district of Brunswick, a town in Cumberland County, Maine, United States. It is owned by the Midcoast Regional Redevelopment Authority.[2][3]

The airport is located on the site of the former Naval Air Station Brunswick. The 2005 Base Realignment and Closure committee recommended the closure of NAS Brunswick. The airport was opened for civilian aircraft use in June 2011.[4]

The airport is the central focus of Brunswick Landing: Maine's Center for Innovation, a business park.[5]

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Brunswick Executive Airport is assigned BXM by the FAA[2] and NHZ by the IATA (which assigned BXM to Batom Airport in Indonesia).[6] The airport's ICAO identifier is KBXM.[7]
