Bert Mooney Airport is a small single-terminal regional airport with only a handful of daily flights, mostly to Salt Lake City and Denver via regional carriers. True 'connections' are rare here since most passengers begin or end their trip in Butte, but the tiny footprint makes any transit within the building essentially instantaneous. There is only one small terminal building with a single gate hold area, so passengers walk directly from check-in to the gate. There is no shuttle, train, or airside transfer of any kind since all flights depart from the same short concourse.

This meets the airport's minimum connecting time given the tiny single-terminal layout. See full 30 min guide →
