Portland International Airport Travel FAQs

Portland International Airport’s airport code was assigned to them by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), as with other airports. The “P” and “D" of “PDX" represent Portland’s first and last letters. The “X” is a placeholder, as the rise in airports meant the IATA needed to begin assigning three-letter airport codes. (Source)

Yes, you can sleep overnight at Portland International Airport. However, there are no designated rest areas. Some of the most popular places to sleep at the airport include the red couches on the far end of Concourse C, the benches near the International Baggage Claim area, and behind the ticket counter at Gates C19–21. (Source)

That depends on your preferences. PDX is a larger airport, so you may have more flight options. However, EUG is likely to be less busy and congested. (Source) If you choose to fly to EUG, you can still book a convenient car rental with Budget by stopping by our EUG rental counter. 

Seattle has the larger airport of the two. While PDX is a major airport, it doesn’t rank in the top 30 largest airports in the United States. Meanwhile, Seattle Tacoma International Airport (SEA) is the 12th largest airport. (Source) Fortunately, Budget has you covered no matter which airport you choose. If you fly to SEA, be sure to book your rental at the Budget SEA rental counter. 

Portland is a unique and vibrant city known for its parks, picturesque landscape, and foodie scene. Additionally, it boasts several world-class attractions, including the Portland Aerial Tram, Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, and Pearl District. (Source) And, Budget has several rental centers in Portland if a one-way rental from the airport better suits your travel plans.
