## Description

UPS Airlines anchors air cargo at Pensacola International (IATA PNS, ICAO KPNS), running a dedicated cargo facility and using the airport to maintain part of its Boeing 757 fleet. Located about 11 km northeast of downtown Pensacola on Florida's Gulf Coast, PNS is primarily a regional passenger airport, with American, Delta, United and Southwest linking it to major US hubs. Reported UPS expansion and FedEx interest in a local logistics center point to a growing freight role, though these plans are not yet confirmed. The nearby Interstate I-10 gives the airport solid highway access across the Florida Panhandle. For long-haul intercontinental freight, shippers typically consolidate through Atlanta (ATL) or Miami (MIA).
