Baton Rouge International Airport
Before the Baton Rouge Metropolitan Area's Commercial/General Aviation Airport became an airport for civilian use, it was a military installation known as Harding Field, and provided flight training during World War II. A number of the pilots which received their training here made history in the aviation industry.
Most recently, the airport has been involved in acquiring property located in the noise sensitive areas. These long-range plans should place the Baton Rouge Metro Airport in the position to accommodate the air transportation needs of this community for the next twenty years and beyond.
The Baton Rouge Metro Airport offers passengers a new state of the art terminal facility, with a wide range of passenger amenities. The center piece of the terminal is a beautifully landscaped three story atrium rotunda featuring a food court and gift shop, with a view of the airfield.
