DescriptionLouisville International Airport (IATA: SDF, ICAO: KSDF, FAA LID: SDF) is a public and military use public airport centrally located in the city of Louisville in Jefferson County, Kentucky, United States. The airport is situated on approximately 1,500 acres (6.1 km2) and has three runways. Its IATA airport code, SDF, is based on the airport's former name, Standiford Field. Although it currently does not have regularly-scheduled international passenger flights, it is a port of entry, as it handles numerous international cargo flights. Over 3.2 million passengers and over 4.7 billion pounds (2,350,000 t) of cargo passed through the airport as of 2014. It is also the third-busiest in the United States in terms of cargo traffic, and seventh-busiest for such in the world. The airport is home to UPS. The Kentucky Air National Guard's 123d Airlift Wing operates C-130 transport aircraft from the co-located Louisville Air National Guard Base. Louisville International-Standiford Field covers 1,500 acres (610 ha) at an elevation of 501 feet (153 m) above mean sea level.
