## Description

UPS and FedEx anchor Harrisburg International (IATA: MDT, ICAO: KMDT), running a regional base at its International Cargo Center and adding flights through the holiday peak — the two integrators' landing fees alone brought the airport about 1.2 million dollars in 2023. Born from the Olmsted Air Force Base that closed in 1969, the Middletown field now ranks third in Pennsylvania for both passengers and cargo. A current expansion will enlarge the freight apron by roughly 30 percent by autumn 2026, laying 52,000 square yards of concrete for four new freighter parking positions. Its 10,001-foot (3,048 m) Runway 13-31 takes any standard freighter. Geography helps: Interstates 81 and 83 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike converge here, and Norfolk Southern runs one of the East Coast's busiest intermodal terminals nearby at Rutherford. Allegiant, American, Delta and United handle passengers, and Three Mile Island stands across the Susquehanna.
