Palm Beach International Airport[a] (IATA: PBI, ICAO: KDJT, FAA LID: DJT),[b] officially known as the President Donald J. Trump International Airport, is a public airport in Palm Beach County, Florida, United States. It is located just west of the city of West Palm Beach, for which it serves as the primary airport. It is also the primary airport for most of Palm Beach County, serving the suburbs and cities of Boca Raton, Wellington, Boynton Beach, Jupiter, and Palm Beach Gardens. It is the third-busiest airport in the Miami metropolitan area, after Miami International Airport and Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport.
The airport is operated by the Palm Beach County Department of Airports. Road access to the airport is direct from I-95, Southern Boulevard, and Congress Avenue. The airport is bordered on the west by Military Trail.
In February 2026, the Florida Legislature approved a bill to rename the airport to the "President Donald J. Trump International Airport" after 45th and 47th United States President Donald Trump. The bill was signed into law by Florida governor Ron DeSantis the following month. The renaming took effect on July 9, 2026.[4] It is the first time a United States airport was named after a sitting president.[5]
History
Original Construction & WWII
Palm Beach International Airport began operations in 1936 as Morrison Field. It was named in honor of Grace Morrison, a key participant in the planning and organization of the airfield. The first flight departing the field was a New York-bound DC-2 operated by Eastern Air Lines in 1936. The airport was officially dedicated on December 19, 1936.[6]
In 1937, the airport expanded beyond an airstrip and an administration building when the Palm Beach Aero Corporation obtained a lease, built hangars and the first terminal on the south side of the airport. The new terminal was known as the Eastern Air Lines Terminal.[6]
The field was used by the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War II. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, Morrison Field was used for training and later as a staging base for the Allied invasion of France, with numerous aircraft departing Morrison en route to the United Kingdom to take part in the D-Day invasion of Normandy.[6] Morrison Field was a stopover for flights to and from India, via Brazil and West Africa.[7]
Post-war Era
In 1947, the newly established U.S. Air Force returned ownership of Morrison Field to Palm Beach County. The name was then changed to Palm Beach International Airport one year later, in 1948.[7]
The airport was again used by the U.S. Air Force in 1951 and renamed Palm Beach Air Force Base under the control of the Military Air Transport Service (MATS). USAF operations occupied the north half of the airfield while civil operations and the airline terminal used the south half. MATS used the base for training with the host unit being the 1707th Air Transport Wing (Heavy), and its 1740th Heavy Transport Training Unit. The 1707 ATW was known as the "University of MATS", becoming the primary USAF training unit for all Air Force personnel supporting and flying heavy transport aircraft. These included C-124 Globemaster II, C-118 Liftmaster, C-97 Stratofreighter, and C-54 Skymaster maintenance training along with aircrew and transition pilot training. Nearly 23,000 airmen trained at Palm Beach AFB during the Korean War.[6]
The Air Weather Service used Palm Beach AFB as headquarters for hurricane research, flying the first WB-50D Superfortress "Hurricane Hunter" aircraft from the base in 1956.[8]
After several years of Palm Beach County fighting the Air Force presence in West Palm Beach,[clarification needed] the Air Force started to close down operations there. The 1707 ATW was inactivated on June 30, 1959, and reassigned to Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. With the wing's departure, Palm Beach County took over airfield operations. The Air Force retained a small presence at the base with the 9th Weather Group becoming the main operational unit at Palm Beach AFB, performing hurricane and weather research for the Air Weather Service. The Air Photographic and Charting Service (APCS) moved its 1370th Photo-Mapping Wing to the base, performing geodetic survey flights. The Air Force finally closed Palm Beach AFB in 1962, and all property was conveyed to Palm Beach International Airport the same year.[citation needed]
1960s: Introduction of Airline Service
Delta Air Lines began scheduled flights in 1959 and Capital Airlines in 1960. The first turbine-powered flights were Eastern Airlines Lockheed L-188 Electras in 1959, and Eastern DC-8 nonstops to Idlewild started in December 1960.[citation needed]
Air Force One was a frequent visitor to PBI during John F. Kennedy's presidency in the early 1960s. Local voters defeated a proposal to relocate the airport around this time, instead choosing to expand the existing facilities. In October 1966, an eight-gate Main Terminal opened on the northeast side of the airport; in 1974 Delta Air Lines moved into its own six-gate terminal with the airport's first jetways.[6] The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) built a new air traffic control tower on the south side of the airport during this period.[citation needed]
By the mid-1970s, the airport's dominant carriers were Delta, Eastern and National. Eastern operated the airport's only widebody service at the time, daily L-1011s to New York JFK and Newark.[9] By 1979, National operated daily DC-10 service to JFK, LaGuardia and Miami, while Eastern operated L-1011s to Atlanta and Delta operated L-1011s to Tampa.[10] By 1985, eight widebodies a day flew between PBI and the three New York airports.[11]
The 25-gate David McCampbell Terminal, named for a World War II naval flying ace, was dedicated in 1988.[12] In 2003, a new landscaped I-95 interchange was built to decrease traffic on Southern Boulevard (US 98) extending Turnage Boulevard (the road around the perimeter of the concourse).[citation needed]
Competition from rapidly expanding Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport cut growth at the airport in the 1990s. The 2001 recession and the September 11 terrorist attacks further inhibited growth, but development in South Florida since 2002 has finally led to a surge of passenger traffic at the airport. In addition, discount carriers such as JetBlue and Southwest Airlines began service to PBI. In 2006, the county embarked on an interim expansion program by breaking ground on a 7-story parking garage and the addition of 3 gates in Concourse C. Long range expansions include gates at Concourse B and the eventual construction of a new 14 gate Concourse D to be extended east from the present terminal.[13]

21st Century
Connections to Donald Trump
Donald Trump sued to block the expansion of one of the runways at PBI in 2010.[14] In 2015, he initiated a $100 million lawsuit over the flight path that passes over his Mar-a-Lago estate.[15] After his win in the 2016 presidential election ensured some type of no fly zone over his property, he dropped the lawsuit.[16] During his presidential term, Air Force One again became a frequent visitor to PBI, typically parking on the south side of the airport near Southern Boulevard.[17] Until 2017, a line of school buses was used as a temporary barrier between the aircraft and onlookers.[18] Temporary security fences began being used requiring assembly and disassembling.[19][20]
In February 2026, lawmakers in the Florida legislature approved a bill to rename the airport to "President Donald J. Trump International Airport" by a vote of 25 to 11 in the Florida Senate and 81 to 30 in the Florida House of Representatives.[21][22] Florida governor Ron DeSantis signed the bill into law in March 2026,[23] though the Federal Aviation Administration needed to update its charts and databases for the change of name to take full effect.[24] The Trump Organization filed to trademark the airport's new name.[25][26] This marked the first time a United States airport was named after an incumbent president.[27] The renaming took effect on July 9, 2026. Trump Force One, a Boeing 757 owned by the Trump Organization, was the first plane to land after the renaming.[4]
Facilities
Runways and taxiways
Palm Beach International Airport covers 2,120 acres (858 ha) and has three runways:[1][28]
- 10L/28R: 10,001 x 150 ft. (3,048 x 46 m), asphalt
- 10R/28L: 3,214 x 75 ft. (980 x 23 m), asphalt
- 14/32: 6,931 x 150 ft. (2,113 x 46 m), asphalt
The airport's runway designations were changed by the Federal Aviation Administration to their current configuration on December 17, 2009. Previously, they had been 09L/27R, 09R/27L, and 13/31.[29]
Terminal

Palm Beach International Airport has one terminal, which consists of 31 gates (27 jetway gates, 4 hardstands) and three concourses.[13]
- Concourse A contains four gates (A1–A4),[30] and serves Allegiant Air, Avelo Airlines, and Bahamasair.[31]
- Concourse B contains 13 gates (B1–B12, B14),[32] and serves American Airlines, Avelo Airlines, Southwest Airlines, Sun Country Airlines, and United Airlines.[31]
- Concourse C contains 14 gates (C1–C12, C14, C16),[33] and serves Air Canada, Breeze Airways, Delta Air Lines, Frontier Airlines, JetBlue, and Porter Airlines.[31]
Customs and immigration services for international flights are located on the lower level on the west side of the terminal and can be accessed by a gates on both Concourses A and B.[30][32] A future Concourse D is proposed, to be constructed off the east side of the terminal.[13]
Control tower
A 240-foot (73 m) Airport Traffic Control tower is active on the north side of the airport – west of concourse A, off Belvedere Road – along with a single-story, 9,000-square-foot (840 m2) ATBM Base Building.[34] The current tower replaced the previous one, which was located on the southern side of the airport.[13] The old tower was eventually demolished after the new tower came into service.[34]
Helicopters
- Helicopter operations typically use 10R/28L or its parallel taxiways or make a direct approach to either Customs or the Galaxy Aviation ramp.[13]
- Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office (PBSO) maintains its air division from a hangar at the southwest corner of the airport.[13]
- Health Care District of Palm Beach County operates the Traumahawk with Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue from a hangar at the southwest corner of the airport, next to PBSO.[13]
Other hangars
- General Aviation fixed-base operators (FBO) and hangars are located along the southern edge of the airport, with entrance access available by the Jet Aviation FBO. Other FBOs at PBI include Atlantic Aviation and Signature Flight Support.[13]
Fire protection and emergency medical services
The Palm Beach County Fire Rescue Aviation Battalion is located between the runways at PBI. The fire station, which is located near the center of the airport grounds, is home to 13 pieces of specialized fire fighting equipment.[35]
These apparatus include:
- An air stair for emergency deplanings[36]
- Five airport crash tenders, with call sign Dragon (Dragon 1, Dragon 2, etc.)[37]
- A foam unit that carries Purple-K concentrate to assist with extinguishing a fire[38]
- A heavy rescue vehicle that carries additional tools for plane crashes and other mass-casualty incidents[39]
Trauma Hawk
The Trauma Hawk Station, which is located at the south west corner of the airport, Palm Beach County Fire Rescue has two Sikorsky S-76C helos.[40] The department partners with the Palm Beach County Health Care District to operate the Trauma Hawk Aero-Medical Program.[41] The Trauma Hawk program, which was established in November 1990, replaced the use of Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office helicopters to medevac critically injured patients to area hospitals.[41] Air ambulances are identically equipped and can carry two patients each and up to four medical attendants if needed.[40] Each helicopter is staffed with a pilot, a registered nurse (RN) and a paramedic. The nurses and paramedics are Palm Beach County Fire Rescue employees while the pilots are Health Care District employees.[41]
