San Bernardino International Airport (IATA: SBD, ICAO: KSBD, FAA LID: SBD) is a public airport located two miles (3 km) southeast of the central business district (CBD) of San Bernardino, in San Bernardino County, California, USA. The airport covers 1,329 acres and has one runway. It is a general aviation and cargo airport located on the former site of Norton Air Force Base.

There are no passenger services departing from the airport. However the airport is being remodled and will be taking international flights as soon as possible. The airport will have entrencess through I-10 and I-215 off Mill Street. Through the San Bernardino freeways. U.S. Customs Service agents are available on call to clear imported goods. The airport is used as a base for United States Forest Service planes fighting forest fires. Several hangars that were formerly empty have recently been occupied by civilian-owned aircraft maintenance companies. The runway is 10,000 feet long, easily accommodating any air cargo services should they do business with the airport. However, UPS and Federal Express choose to use Ontario International Airport to the west, while DHL uses the March Air Reserve Base to the south.

The airport and surrounding areas are within the City of San Bernardino, California, and the Inland Valley Development Agency. The airport and surrounding areas are being redeveloped by Hillwood.

The airport temporarily housed SAM 27000 while the Air Force One Pavilion at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library was under construction.
