Fort Myers Southwest Florida International Airport - RSW
Southwest Florida International Airport Address
11000 Terminal Access RoadFort Myers, Fl 33913-8899
This airport, serving Fort Myers and other major cities in southwest Florida, was not started until 1983. It was originally intended to be a regional airport that redirected traffic from the congested Page Field airport in Fort Myers. However, as early as 1984, Southwest Florida Regional Airport was hosting international flights to Europe. Finally, it was rebranded Southwest Florida International Airport in 1993, and facilities were upgraded to better handle overseas flights, including a longer runway for potential use by Concordes. However, today, the largest aircraft in regular service at the airport are Airbus A330-300s for flights to Munich and Dusseldorf.
Today, the Southwest Florida International Airport services some seven million passengers a year. The new midfield terminal, which currently holds three concourses with 28 gates, is undergoing renovation again to expand capacity to five concourses with 65 gates. There is also a construction project to build another runway, to open in 2010.
