- PIA Airport Overview
General Wayne A. Downing Peoria International Airport PIE is located close to Interstate Hwys I-474 and I-74 and the City of Peoria, near the center of the State of Illinois. The Airport is 170 miles SW of Chicago and because of its central location is a good alternative to the more stressful airport at O'Hare. Major airlines serve Peoria Airport with nonstop flights to major US Cities, with connections to all points of the globe.
The present passenger terminal offers the following amenities: rental car agencies, ATM machines, WiFi access, meeting rooms, executive lounge, and food and gift shops. Parking is free at the newly renovaed parking lot; metered parking is available on the lower level of the terminal. To get to the City, you have the option of taking a taxi, limo or CityLink.
In October 2008 ground breaking began for a new terminal facility to eventually replace the present terminal built in the 1950ies. Completion of the new terminal is expected in 2010. It will cover about 120,000 square feet, have 11 gates and will be able to handle over 2 million passengers annually.
