Three Trips New York to Cleveland+ Area


Posted on 07/05/2007

Welcome, New Yorkers, to the Cleveland+ Region!

New York residents have another exciting low fare flight into the Cleveland+ Area.  Effective July 15, AirTran Airways will add a 3rd round-trip from the Cleveland+ area’s Akron-Canton Airport. The region has been without the flight for 6 months due to slot issues at LaGuardia. But, due to a team effort between AirTran and the Airport, new slots have been leased and thus the return of the 3rd flight!

What’s with the phraseology Cleveland+ Area? It’s all brand new.  Through a joint effort of business and community leaders, the Northeast Ohio region is being branded as “Cleveland+.” Meaning Cleveland + Akron + Canton + Youngstown. It’s a result of a great deal of work and study that has crafted an ingenious plan to describe our region that takes into account the prominence of Cleveland in our region but also recognizes the individual identities of the 3 other cities.  The whole idea is wonderful and should be embraced by all of us.  We have 4 great independent cities, when taken together, match up with any region in the country.   Some people may not be happy with Cleveland having top billing in the Brand, but it should.  And, we should feel fortunate to be able to partner up with such a great and dynamic city as Cleveland.  We are the Cleveland+ Region.  So for those of you who live in New York, AirTran is giving you another affordable travel option to get here.  Hope to see you soon!
