Two fixed-base operators (FBOs) provide general aviation services on the field: Jet Center MFR, and Million Air (which recently completed its new three-story corporate terminal). A new control tower was completed in late 2008 the $3.6 million, 100-foot-tall (30 m) tower uses a state-of-the-art geothermal system to heat and cool the building. Now that the terminal is complete, there is a main concourse, and two open air concourses. The new terminal has an observation deck on the second floor, a restaurant for screened and unscreened passengers, and second-story loading bridges. The airport underwent renovations which included a new 110,000 sq ft (10,000 m 2) terminal building with room for expansion work completed in 2009 and designed by CSHQA and the Abell Architectural Group Inc. The airport covers 938 acres (380 ha) at an elevation of 1,335 feet (407 m). The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 categorized it as a primary commercial service airport (more than 10,000 enplanements per year). By virtue of annual commercial passengers, Rogue Valley International–Medford Airport is the third busiest airport in Oregon with 1,010,920 passenger enplanements and deplanements in 2018 (behind Eugene and Portland). In doing so Medford joined both PDX and EUG as the only Oregon airports to have surpassed 1 million passengers in a year. In December of 2018, the airport celebrated its 1 million+ annual passenger milestone. Originally named Medford–Jackson County Airport, it was renamed to Rogue Valley International–Medford Airport after it became an international airport in 1994.
