Fairbanks International Airport (IATA: FAI, ICAO: PAFA) is a public airport located three miles (5 km) southwest of the city of Fairbanks, Alaska, USA.

The airport serves many cargo airlines as a convenient refueling stop for some aircraft on trans-polar routes. FAI is served by a limited number of passenger airlines. Alaska Airlines, serves the airport year-round, while Northwest Airlines and Delta Air Lines serve FAI during the summer.

Currently, a terminal renovation/expansion project is beginning to unfold due to the steady increase in yearly passenger counts. At the conclusion of the renovation project, the terminal will have five jet-bridges (up from the current four) and a more modern terminal.
