International Airport ( KPDX) is the largest airport in
the U.S. state of Oregon, accounting for 90% of passenger travel and
more than 95% of air cargo of the state.[2]
It is located on the south side of the Columbia River within the
current city limits of Portland in Multnomah County, six miles by
air and twelve miles by highway northeast of downtown Portland.
Portland International Airport is often referred to by its IATA
airport code, PDX. PDX has direct connections to major airport hubs throughout the United States, plus non-stop international flights to Canada, Japan, Mexico, and the Netherlands. The main terminal consists of one building roughly "H"-shaped that is divided into five concourses. Concourses A, B, and C are on the south side of the terminal and concourses D and E are on the north; the two sides are connected beyond security checkpoints by an elevated walkway opened in August 2005. PDX offers services including free Wi-Fi wireless Internet access, a children's play area and postal services. PDX has a shopping mall behind its ticketing counters, with all shops and restaurants open every day. Because the state is one of the few in the nation with no sales tax, all stores offer tax-free shopping. The Port of Portland also requires all airport shops and restaurants to practice "Fair Retail Pricing" (which means businesses are not allowed to charge more than at their off-airport locations). Stores include national stores and Oregon-based ones such as Made in Oregon, Nike, Columbia Sportswear, Powell's Books, Oregon Pendleton Shop, and The Real Mother Goose among others. Food services also are a mix of national chains and local options.
