PBI stands for Palm Beach International Airport, an airport code abbreviation.
Airport serving West Palm Beach and the Palm Beaches in Florida, located about 3 miles from downtown. It sees heavy seasonal traffic from northern "snowbirds" in winter.
Example: PBI flights fill up every January when the snowbirds head south.
Usage notes
ICAO code KPBI. The airport sits near Mar-a-Lago, so presidential visits trigger temporary flight restrictions that affect local general aviation. Private jet traffic is especially heavy in the winter social season. The current terminal opened in 1988, replacing a much smaller building, and the airport is owned and run by Palm Beach County.
