Gary/Chicago International Airport (IATA: GYY, ICAO: KGYY, FAA LID: GYY) is a joint civil-military public airport in Gary, in Lake County, Indiana, United States. It is three miles northwest of the city center[2] of Gary, and 25 miles (40 km) southeast of the Chicago Loop. It is operated by the Gary/Chicago International Airport Authority, which was created by an interstate compact between Gary, Chicago, and Indiana.[3] Nearby highway connections include I-90, I-80, I-94, I-65 and the Chicago Skyway.
Federal Aviation Administration records say the airport had 4,353 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008,[4] 1,633 in 2009 and 2,143 in 2010.[5] It is in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which called it a non-primary commercial service airport based on enplanements in 2008 (between 2,500 and 10,000 per year)[6] but would be categorized as general aviation based on enplanements in 2010.
