Harrisburg International Airport

Harrisburg International Airport in central Pennsylvania is the first airport in the United States completely designed, built and opened since the September 11th tragedy. The result is an easy-to-navigate airport that efficiently meets today's strict security standards. The Y-shaped terminal building has ticketing and the baggage claim on the first level and security and boarding gates on the second level. You can watch planes arrive and depart from the terminal's third floor observation area which provides a view of nearly the entire 9,500 foot runway. The airport also boasts an "inter-modal transportation facility," not to be mistaken for a mere parking garage, that houses all forms of ground transportation with limos, taxis, buses and rental cars on the first level and short-term, daily and long-term parking on the top three levels.
