About Chicago Rockford International Airport

Chicago Rockford International Airport carries the IATA code RFD and the ICAO code KRFD. It sits at 42.1954, -89.0972 in Chicago/Rockford, United States, and is classified as a medium airport with scheduled passenger service.

The codes are worth keeping straight, because they are not interchangeable. RFD is the three-letter IATA code — the one on your boarding pass and your baggage tag. KRFD is the four-character ICAO code air traffic control and flight planning systems use. This page tracks by position, so it shows every aircraft in the area regardless of which code its flight plan was filed under.

Positions come from volunteer ADS-B receivers and are provided for general interest. This is not a source of arrival or departure times — for those, check with the airline or the airport directly.
