Rogue Valley International–Medford Airport is a public use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) north of downtown Medford, a city in Jackson County, Oregon, United States.〔 Owned and operated by Jackson County's Aviation Authority, the airport also serves seven nearby counties in southwest Oregon. In terms of commercial passenger boardings, Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport is the third busiest airport in Oregon with 301,742 enplanements in 2011 (behind Eugene and Portland with 393,504 and 6,808,486 enplanements, respectively).〔 〕 It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a ''primary commercial service'' airport (more than 10,000 enplanements per year).〔 〕 ==Facilities and aircraft== Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport covers an area of 885 acres (358 ha) at an elevation of 1,335 feet (407 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 14/32 with an asphalt surface measuring 8,800 by 150 feet (2,682 x 46 m).〔 The airport has recently undergone major renovations which include a new terminal building with room for expansion, which was completed in 2009 and designed by CSHQA and The Abell Architectural Group Inc.〔(Medford airport opens new, $35M terminal )〕 The new terminal hosts an observation deck on the second floor, as well as a restaurant for screened and unscreened passengers. Also, second-story loading bridges have been put in place for easier loading and unloading of passengers. Now that the new terminal is complete, there is a main concourse, and two open air concourses. Coincided with the construction of a new terminal, a new control tower was built as well. The new $3.6 million, control tower uses a state-of-the-art geothermal system to heat and cool the building. The tower was completed in late 2008.〔(MailTribune.com: Funds secured for airport tower )〕 Two fixed-based operators (FBOs) currently provide general aviation services on the field: Jet Center MFR, and Million Air (which recently completed its new three-story corporate terminal). For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2011, the airport had 42,063 aircraft operations, an average of 115 per day: 62% general aviation, 25% air taxi, 12% scheduled commercial, and 1% military.
