The Airline Drive-In opened in 1952, and is located in North Central Oklahoma not far from the Oklahoma/Kansas border. It got its name from its proximity to the Ponca City Municipal Airport.
The Airline Drive-In had a capacity for 500 cars and screened double bills. It was open on week ends in the spring and fall and seven nights during the peak summer season. Audio was provided over FM radio.
The Airline Drive-In closed in 2007.
