Burlington International Airport, International airport in Burlington, Vermont, US.
Burlington International Airport is an international airport in Burlington, Vermont, operating two runways across 382 hectares (942 acres). The passenger terminals are clearly divided, with separate zones for departures, arrivals and cargo handling.
The first recorded flight landed here in August 1920, and the facility initially served as a municipal airfield. In February 1969, it was upgraded to international status.
Almost half of all travelers arrive from Québec province, so French announcements and bilingual signs form a natural part of daily operations here. You often hear French alongside English, giving the facility a cross-border character.
American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United Airlines offer regular connections to cities such as Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Chicago. The terminals are compact, with short walking distances between check-in and departure gates.
The Vermont Air National Guard operates the 158th Fighter Wing here, flying F-16C Fighting Falcon jets alongside commercial traffic. Visitors sometimes see these aircraft taking off or landing next to passenger planes.
