BOI Airport - Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field Flight Status

Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field is a dual name for a single airport: the one travelers know as BOI airport in Boise, United States. BOI is its three-letter IATA code, the form used on tickets and in airline apps; KBOI is the four-letter ICAO code used in flight plans and by air traffic control. It is classified as a large airport with an average traffic level, and it sits at 43.5644 north, 116.223 west. The live radar on this page shows the aircraft arriving at and departing from BOI right now, and the arrivals and departures pages linked above it are the quickest way to check a specific flight. The sections below add context neither of them shows: our own 30-day measurement of traffic at the airport, the airlines that appeared in it, and the nearest alternative airports in our data.

Our 30-Day Reception Measurement at BOI

The traffic picture on this page comes from our own reception-based measurement, which logged aircraft near Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field over a 30-day period. Across that window, our receivers recorded an average of 5.7 aircraft observations per day near BOI. That figure reflects what our equipment picked up, not the airport's complete schedule. It sits in our data next to the airport's average traffic level, and the two are separate entries: one is a class, the other a count. The busiest window in the same 30 days fell between 03:00 and 05:00 on our measurement clock, which runs in UTC rather than local Boise time, so convert it to your own time zone before lining it up with a planned departure or arrival.

Airlines Logged at Boise Airport

Three airlines showed up in the carrier breakdown of our 30-day sample at BOI. Southwest Airlines was the one our receivers logged most often, with 23 observations in 30 days, well ahead of the other two. Alaska Airlines followed with 11 over the same period, and Delta Air Lines completed the group with 9. All three counts come from the reception data described above.

Nearby Airports for the Boise Area

If BOI does not work for a given trip, the nearest alternatives in our data all sit well outside the city. McCall Municipal Airport is the closest at 148 km from BOI, Friedman Memorial Airport follows at 155 km, and Joslin Field Magic Valley Regional Airport is the third and most distant at 185 km. All three distances are the figures our database holds for Boise's neighbors, and each of the three has its own page on this site, linked above. For flights elsewhere in the country, the airport overview is the starting point on this site.
