Birmingham IAP (ANG)

Birmingham International Airport is one of the most conveniently located airports (just 4.5 miles from downtown) in the region. The Airport provides a base of employment for more than 4,000 people and over 100 companies are leasing tenants. Guided by the Birmingham Airport Authority, Birmingham International Airport since 1986 has more than doubled its scheduled commercial flights. It has also increased air cargo operations, rental car facilities, corporate aviation facilities, and other airport facilities. Since 1990, the modernization and expansion program has invested more than $300 million to improve virtually every aspect of airport operations, including runways, terminal facilities, support services, parking facilities, access roadways, and airport security. The growth and expansion of the airport are planned well into the future. Projects on the drawing boards or already under construction include cargo facilities, lengthening the East/West runway, Air Carrier, Apron rehabilitation terminal expansion, new flight support facilities, and more.
