## Description

Boca Raton Airport (IATA: BCT, ICAO: KBCT) works one 6,276-foot (1,913 m) runway and handles no air freight at all: the field is a business-aviation reliever, not a cargo station. It sits on I-95 midway between Palm Beach International (PBI) and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL), serving corporate jets, flight schools and charter operators for a city built on corporate headquarters; IBM developed the first PC here in 1981. There is no cargo terminal and no freighter handling on the field. Shippers in south-east Florida book through FLL or PBI, both about twenty minutes by road, while international volumes route via Miami (MIA), which moved roughly 3.5 million tons in 2025 to rank first in the United States and third worldwide. Miami is also where Latin American perishables and pharmaceuticals clear customs, so temperature-controlled traffic never touches BCT. For forwarders, Boca Raton is where the client lands, not where the freight does.
