The Port of Portland owns and operates Portland International Airport. PDX is the 29th largest passenger airport in the US and serves a population of more than 3.5 million people in two states. PDX offers travelers a unique customer experience. With concessions specific to our Northwest region, environmentally responsible operations and attractive facilities, PDX has been named Best Airport in the nation for six years running!

The Port’s permanent art collection contributes to the ambiance of PDX. The collection includes work by Louis Bunce, Jack Portland, Deborah Butterfield and others. In two and three dimensional form, the collection captures the collective memory of our region.
