San Diego International Airport, the world's busiest single-runway airport, formerly known as Lindbergh Field, is just a three-mile journey northwest of Downtown San Diego. With over 75 nonstop destinations accessible from the 663 acre airport, your journey potential is broad and varied. The airport's proximity to the downtown skyscrapers offers a unique landing approach experience, a sight to behold for aircraft enthusiasts and travellers alike.

The airport is not only renowned for its aviation functionality but also its rich history. Originally the delta river outlet for the San Diego River, the site has been home to the Ryan Airlines factory, testing facility for early US sailplane designs, the headquarters of major defence contractor Convair, and saw significant transformations during World War II and beyond. With ambitious replacement and reconstruction plans in the pipeline, this important gateway to San Diego constantly evolves, much like the vibrant city it serves.
