San Bernardino International Airport is a public airport located 2 miles (3 km) southeast of San Bernardino, in San Bernardino County, California, USA. It is a general aviation and cargo airport located on the former site of Norton Air Force Base.
There are no passenger services departing from the airport. U.S. Customs Service agents are available on call to clear imported goods. The airport is used as a base for United States Forest Service planes fighting forest fires, and the large unused hangars are often used as evacuation centers for the wildfires that occur in the San Bernardino National Forest. The runway is 10,000 feet long, easily accommodating any air cargo services should they do business with the airport. However, UPS and Federal Express choose to use Ontario International Airport to the west, while DHL uses the March Air Reserve Base to the south.
The airport and surrounding areas are within the City of San Bernardino, California, and the Inland Valley Development Agency. The airport and surrounding areas are being redeveloped by Hillwood.
