Rockford Airport, officially Chicago Rockford International Airport, is a major cargo airport located approximately 90 miles northwest of Chicago, Illinois. It serves as a significant air freight hub, particularly for express package carriers and charter cargo operations, and is a designated port of entry for international air cargo. The airport's uncongested airspace and large cargo handling capacity make it an attractive alternative to Chicago O'Hare for freight-focused operations.
