## Description

The three letters say it: SUN, the IATA code of Friedman Memorial Airport (ICAO: KSUN) at Hailey, Idaho, is the airport for Sun Valley — Idaho's third-busiest commercial field with 121,123 enplaned passengers in 2024, yet one without a single scheduled freighter. Set at 5,318 feet in the Wood River Valley, it works one asphalt runway, 13/31, of 7,550 feet or about 2,300 metres. Air cargo moves only as belly freight aboard the regional jets SkyWest operates for Delta, United and Alaska Airlines, year-round to Salt Lake City and seasonally to Denver, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco and Chicago; there is no air cargo terminal, no freighter handling and no customs clearance for international consignments on site. Shippers importing or exporting from the valley therefore book air freight through Boise Airport (BOI), roughly 240 road kilometres west, or Salt Lake City International (SLC), some 450 kilometres south-east, with trucking bridging the gap. Atlantic Aviation provides FBO handling for the business jets that surge in every July for the Allen & Co media conference in Ketchum. The latest development is a new ten-acre FBO campus being built by Clay Lacy Aviation. For anyone shipping to Hailey the practical answer is simple: parcels and pallets arrive reliably, but by road.
