There's always something happening at the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority. This dynamic public agency operates San Diego International Airport and is also responsible for addressing the region's future air transportation needs.

The Airport Authority was established by state law and is governed by a nine-member appointed Board representing all areas of the County. San Diego International Airport - funded through user fees and not local taxes - is the nation's busiest single-runway commercial service airport.

Over forty thousand people move through the Airport's facilities daily, and in 2003 the Airport served some 15.3 million passengers. An economic driver for the region, San Diego International Airport provides employment for over 5,000 people and contributes $4.5 billion annually to the regional economy.
