## Description

Roughly four million passengers a year and the lion's share of Idaho's air cargo pass through Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field, the state's busiest airport. FedEx runs a dedicated air freight center on Lockheed Lane, UPS Airlines and Western Air Express fly scheduled freighter rotations, and belly capacity on Alaska, Delta and United adds to the mix, with Swissport handling on the ramp. Bonded shipments can use Foreign-Trade Zone 280 across the surrounding Treasure Valley. The regional economy turns on Micron Technology, whose Boise headquarters is pouring some 50 billion dollars into two new semiconductor fabs — high-value, time-critical electronics that increasingly move by air. Interstate 84 runs past the field and a Union Pacific main line serves the city, tying the airport into road and rail. The south side is Gowen Field, home to the Idaho Air National Guard's 124th Fighter Wing and its A-10 Thunderbolt II. For Idaho's smaller fields, Boise is the logical cargo gateway.
