Ontario International Airport (IATA: ONT, ICAO: KONT, FAA LID: ONT) is a public airport located two miles (3 km) east of the central business district (CBD) of Ontario, a city in San Bernardino County, California, USA. The airport covers 1,700 acres and has two runways. It is the second major international airport in the area, after Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). LA/Ontario International Airport is typically less crowded and easier to use than LAX; according to Forbes it is one of the five best alternate airports in America. It is the only major commercial airport to serve the fast growing Inland Empire region of California, is the West Coast air and truck hub for UPS and is a major distribution point for FedEx.

Recently, Ontario International Airport has been renamed to LA/Ontario International Airport in order to entice travelers from the already over-trafficked Los Angeles International Airport and also to reduce confusion for travelers fearing they are flying to Ontario, Canada.
