Sarasota Bradenton International Airport (SRQ) operates out of Florida, between the cities of Sarasota and Bradenton, though it is usually called Sarasota Airport for short. It is a mid-sized airport which services Jet Blue Airways, US Airways Express, and Delta, which has been the largest carrier for Sarasota Bradenton International Airport. This airport has two runways and only one terminal, and it serves almost exclusively the United States, with minimal service to Canada. Sarasota Airport was temporarily known as Sarasota Army Airport, after it was leased to the army in 1942 during WWII.
