## Description

Roughly 29 percent of Montana's air cargo tonnage moves through one building at Great Falls International Airport (IATA: GTF, ICAO: KGTF): FedEx's state regional sort center, over 70 staff across about five acres. Unusually for rural Montana, the entire airfield sits inside Foreign-Trade Zone 88, and an on-site Customs and Border Protection office makes GTF the region's official port of entry. UPS, Alpine Air and Ameriflight fly freight alongside FedEx. The BNSF rail corridor runs north to the Canadian frontier at Sweetgrass, while Interstate 15 handles the road leg. The 120th Wing of the Montana Air National Guard and nearby Malmstrom Air Force Base, home to Minuteman III silos, give the field a strong defence footprint. The airport set a record in fiscal 2025 with 387,416 passengers. For forwarders, Great Falls is north-central Montana's bonded freight entry point, with Billings carrying the heavier eastern tonnage.
