Indianapolis International Airport (IATA: IND, ICAO: KIND, FAA LID: IND) is a public airport located seven miles (11 km) southwest of the
central business district of Indianapolis, a city in Marion County, Indiana, United States. It is owned by the City of Indianapolis and operated
by British airport operator BAA. The airport is the largest in Indiana and is a major hub for FedEx. It is also a focus city for AirTran Airways and
Northwest Airlines. As of 2006, it is the only commercial airport in the United States to be completely managed by a private firm.
A state-of-the-art, 1.2 million square foot midfield terminal is currently being constructed on the west side of the airport. The new terminal
is scheduled to open in 2008. The airport's master plan also calls for a new third runway to be built south of I-70 in the future.
