## Description

FedEx anchors air cargo at Great Falls International (GTF/KGTF): its regional sort centre handles roughly 29 percent of Montana's entire air freight tonnage, with UPS, Alpine Air and Ameriflight flying alongside. The whole airfield sits inside Foreign-Trade Zone 88, and an on-site Customs and Border Protection office makes GTF the official port of entry for north-central Montana. Belly capacity is growing: since late October 2025 United has returned mainline Airbus service for the first time in twenty years and swapped 50-seat jets for 76-seat regional aircraft, while a concourse expansion with a new baggage system completes in 2026. The airport set a record in fiscal 2025 with 387,416 passengers, beating its previous 2015 high. Inland, Interstate 15 and the parallel BNSF corridor run north to the Canadian border at Sweetgrass, a short leg for shippers moving between Alberta and Montana. The 120th Wing of the Montana Air National Guard and nearby Malmstrom Air Force Base, home to Minuteman III silos, shape the surroundings, while heavier eastern tonnage goes through Billings (BIL).
