A new year and a new route! We are absolutely thrilled that the U.S. Department of Transportation awarded US Airways two slots to fly from Akron-Canton to Washington Reagan National Airport (DCA). It is nearly impossible to add new flights there, yet so many travelers from our community wanted the ease and convenience of the nonstop flight right into the heart of Washington, D.C. It is something we've worked on for more than a decade.
Our celebration of the new flight included many of the community and government leaders who helped secure the slots. We are so grateful to Congressman Tim Ryan, Congresswoman Betty Sutton, Congressman John Boccieri and our patron saint, retired Congressman Ralph Regula for their leadership and help. Thanks also to the 88 community groups and leaders who wrote in support of our application. There is no question that the outpouring of support helped us clinch the victory.
If you would like to see photos or videos of the celebration (which included a surprise appearance from the 16th President of the United States- Abe Lincoln) click here for videos or photos.
We aren't exactly sure what the rest of the year holds, but we are off to a great start. Here's to a great 2009.
