I don’t know, maybe just maybe it’s because of the outrageous flight prices. You can fly out of Destin for 25% of the cost.
Could it be down because Businesses have found that they can save Money in Biden’s Great Economy by doing Business using ZOOM instead of sending there Employee’s to do Face to Face Meetings?
Voters did it to themselves. All that future candidates have to do is say is I will spend your tax dollars at the airport to ensure air traffic is down, vote for me, and voters comply.
Isn’t International Travel flourishing? Are jets from around the world flying into TLH for maintenance. Certainly the Airport’s new “pick and pull” salvage yard must be raking in the cash. How can passenger travel be down when the taxpayer is funding millions in city/county employees’ salaries and pensions? TR must have made a mistake (insert sarcasm).
