FAA airport diagram Burlington International Airport (IATA: BTV, ICAO: KBTV, FAA LID: BTV) is a joint civil-military public airport in South Burlington, Vermont. The airport is three miles (5 km) east of the central business district of Burlington, Vermont's largest city. BTV is owned by the City of Burlington. History
From 2000 to 2008, the airport experienced an increase in growth and service. Since 2000, $24 million in renovations and expansion has been invested at Burlington. In 2008, the airport authority completed a $15 million expansion project which added five gates — four with boarding bridges — and customer service areas, in addition to a 948-space parking garage and an elevated connected walkway.
For the 12-month period ending May 30, 2008, the airport had 90,271 aircraft operations, an average of 247 per day: 52% general aviation, 31% air taxi, 5% military and 12% scheduled commercial. There are 101 aircraft based at this airport: 50 single engine, 14 multi-engine, 8 jet aircraft, 1 helicopter and 28 military aircraft.
The airport set a local record in July 2008 when 79,154 passengers flew from Burlington, the first time the figure has crossed 70,000.
BTV enplaned over 759,000 people in 2008, a 7.3% increase from 2007.
Burlington International Airport serves the Burlington-South Burlington metropolitan area, which contained over 206,000 residents as of 2006 U.S. Census estimates. Due to the relatively small size of the market, airlines mostly fly regional airliners on their Burlington routes. A few airlines fly larger jets, such as the Airbus A320 family, to BTV; JetBlue Airways is one such carrier.
In 2008, Big Sky Airlines stopped flying the Boston route. Management has been searching for a replacement for this important route.
The airport has used natural resources such as marble and granite, and maple for interior decoration, intended to give the airport a "Vermont Feel". In 2009, the airport had fifteen gates serving seven airlines.
On February 3, 2010 it was announced that AirTran Airways would not be returning to Burlington. Service started in early 2009 on Boeing 717 aircraft operating 55 minute flights from Baltimore, but after only 6 months AirTran demoted BTV to seasonal service, operating only during the summer months. AirTran planned on resuming service in the spring of 2010, but due to various reasons not specified they did not. AirTran service lasted for 8 months in 2009. Southwest Airlines has indicated that it may pick up the route at some point on its Boeing 737 jets.
In 2010, it was announced that Plattsburgh International Airport will receive a federal subsidy to start operating a connection to Boston, thereby attracting the Canadian passengers that Burlington had been relying on.
In 2010, a city-owned cable provider was unable to pay the city of Burlington $17 million it owed. As a result, Moody's downrated the debt for the city. Moody's also downrated the credit rating for the airport, as well.

In 2009, the Airport Authority sought $45 million for an expansion. If approved by Burlington city voters; it would provide 1,400 additional parking space to add onto the current 3 story, 2,100 spaces garage. It would hold 3,500 cars within 5 stories, with a completion date of late 2010 or early 2011.
As a Burlington-owned facility, it purchases its electricity from the city-owned utility.
Military Facilities
Two military installations are based there. The first is Burlington Air National Guard Base, which includes the 158th Fighter Wing (158 FW), an Air Combat Command (ACC)-gained unit of the Vermont Air National Guard, flying the F-16C Fighting Falcon.

The second installation is an Army Aviation Support Facility (AASF) of the Vermont Army National Guard, supporting the 1st Battalion, 103d Aviation Regiment and the 86th Medical Company (Air Ambulance).
