Harrisburg International Airport has served Central Pennsylvania for over 100 years. First, in 1898, the Signal Corps of the U.S. Army was stationed here. Then, the first airplanes landed in 1918 at what was then called Olmsted Air Force Base. The base grew to 11,400 civilian employees in 1969, when it was decommissioned. At this point, Harrisburg International Airport began to serve the public, under the ownership of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

In 1998, the Commonwealth transferred ownership to the Susquehanna Area Regional Airport Authority (SARAA), the board that oversees public ownership of the airport. The Authority board consists of members representing Cumberland, Dauphin, and York Counties, the Cities of Harrisburg and York, and Fairview and Lower Swatara Townships.

In addition to owning Harrisburg International Airport, SARAA also now owns Capital City Airport, which was founded in 1938 as York State Airport. The two airports' services complement each other and serve as a strong foundation for SARAA's vision of the future, the Master Plan.
