Pittsburgh International Airport , formerly Greater Pittsburgh International Airport, is a civil–military international airport in Moon Township, Pennsylvania. It is the primary international airport serving the Greater Pittsburgh Region, located about 10 miles west of downtown Pittsburgh, at an elevation of 1,202 feet above sea level.

First opened in 1952, the airport was initially served by five airlines and became a small hub for Trans World Airlines for over two decades. The airport underwent a massive $1 billion rebuilding and expansion which was completed in 1992 and became a major hub for US Airways. The new airport was one of the most innovative in the world, dubbed the "airport of the future" by the New York Times, and helped to pioneer modern airport design with its X-shape to reduce distance between gates, underground tram to transport passengers around the airport, and array of shopping options, all of which were cutting-edge at the time.
