Cooma Snowy Mountains Airport — Cooma, Australia

OOM denotes Cooma Snowy Mountains Airport, located near Cooma in New South Wales, Australia, serving as a gateway to the Snowy Mountains region. This regional airport supports tourism traffic tied to nearby ski resorts like Thredbo and Perisher during winter months, as well as general aviation and glider operations, since the area's thermal conditions make it popular with soaring enthusiasts. Cooma itself has historical significance as the administrative headquarters for the massive Snowy Mountains Hydroelectric Scheme constructed in the mid-20th century. OOM occasionally sees seasonal charter flights bringing skiers directly from major Australian cities, supplementing the longer road journey many visitors otherwise take to reach the Snowy Mountains alpine resorts.
