Reno/Tahoe International Airport (IATA: RNO, ICAO: KRNO) is an airport in Reno, Nevada, serving the Reno metropolitan area, western Nevada, and parts of eastern California. It is the closest commercial airport to the vacation and ski resort destination of Lake Tahoe. The airport was originally called Reno-Cannon International Airport in honor of former U.S. Senator Howard Cannon. The terminal building itself is still named for him.
Reno/Tahoe International Airport is the second busiest airport commercially in the state of Nevada after McCarran International in Las Vegas.
Reno/Tahoe International used to be the hub of Reno Air, a now-defunct medium sized airline that had offered non-stop MD-80 and MD-90 service to many cities, until Reno Air was bought and taken over by American Airlines. Reno Air's first flight was on July 1, 1992, and its last flight was on August 30, 1999.
The main lobby of Reno/Tahoe International Airport contains an exhibit featuring the bust of Nevada State Senator (and Nevada State Senate Majority Leader) William J. "Bill" Raggio. Raggio is described in the exhibit as being "The Father of the Airport Authority."
