Jacksonville Airport (JAX) Information

Where is Jacksonville Airport? Jacksonville International Airport (IATA: JAX, ICAO: KJAX, FAA LID: JAX) is a joint civil-military public airport located nine miles (14 km) north of the central business district of Jacksonville, a city in Duval County, Florida, United States.

Jacksonville International Airport covers an area of 7,911 acres (3,201 ha) which contains two concrete runways: 7/25 measuring 10,000 x 150 ft (3,048 x 46 m) and 13/31 measuring 7,701 x 150 ft (2,347 x 46 m). The Jacksonville Airport's two runways are laid out in "V" configuration (with the bottom tip of the "V" pointing West). A long-range plan exists to build two additional runways, each parallelling one of the existing runways. A new runway alongside the existing southern runway will be built first. No date has been set for implementing the runway expansion plan (the expectation is that construction of the third runway would take place around 2015).
