Coleman A. Young International Airport (IATA: DET, ICAO: KDET, FAA LID: DET) (Coleman A. Young Municipal Airport. formerly Detroit City Airport) is six miles northeast of downtown Detroit, in Wayne County, Michigan. It is owned by the City of Detroit. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2017–2021 categorized it as a regional general aviation facility.

The airport was once served by Southwest Airlines and Pro Air, both of which operated Boeing 737s from the airfield. Chautauqua Airlines served the airport but ceased service less than a year later.Spirit Airlines planned to fly McDonnell-Douglas DC-9s to DET in 1995, but the service never began.Pro Air, a scheduled passenger airline, was based at the airport and grounded by the FAA due to poor maintenance performance. The airport now has no scheduled passenger airline service.

The airport's passenger terminal is also operated by the US Customs department, which serves private and cargo airplanes.

The 53,000-square-foot (4,900 m²) passenger terminal includes space for restaurants, retail concessions, car rental facilities, airline offices, baggage pick-up and claim areas, boarding areas and passenger lounges. The airport has three 1,000 space parking lots.
