Portland Jetport Airport (PWM) Information

Where is Portland Jetport Airport? Portland International Jetport (IATA: PWM, ICAO: KPWM, FAA LID: PWM) is a public airport located two miles (3 km) west of the central business district of Portland, in Cumberland County, Maine, United States. A significant portion of the jetport, including the main runway, is located in the neighboring city of South Portland. The moniker "jetport" helps PWM distinguish itself from the similarly named Portland Airport (PDX) in Oregon.

In 2007, the airport saw huge growth when it handled a record 1.6 million passengers, up 17.0% from the previous year. Since then, passenger traffic levels of 1.7 million in the years 2008-2011. Portland Jetport has benefited from service by low-cost carriers such as AirTran Airways and JetBlue.

A survey conducted in June 2011 found PWM Airport to be the most affordable airport in the region, and the third most affordable in New England.
