Airport Director’s Letter – Summer 2021

The TSA reported a record number of passengers over Memorial Day Weekend, screening more than 7.1 million people from Thursday through Monday. That represented the highest traffic number since March of 2020, and indicates travelers are once again confident to take to the skies.
