MidAmerica St. Louis Airport (IATA: BLV, ICAO: KBLV) is a public airport located in the St. Louis metropolitan area, 7 miles (11 km) east of the city of Belleville in St. Clair County, Illinois, USA.

Since beginning operations in November 1997, MidAmerica has operated as a Joint Use Airport with Scott Air Force Base.

It was created to alleviate some crowding of Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, but has never had service from any major airline. It has often been criticized as a pork barrel project.
