Chattanooga Airport Targeting More Air Service as It Reaches Out to Airlines, Airports

Sep. 18—The Chattanooga Airport, which is stepping up efforts to woo more air service, is reaching out to the airlines to better tell the city's story and to other airports to learn from them.

Airport Chief Executive April Cameron, in her first meeting of the Airport Authority since she was elevated to the top post this summer, said Monday that route planners for four airlines are invited to the city the first week of October.

She said the planners work for the airlines that already service Chattanooga — Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, United Airlines and Allegiant Air. Representatives of other carriers have been invited as well, Cameron said, but the focus is on current carriers in the first year of such an initiative.

Along with meeting with airport staff, the mayors of Chattanooga and Hamilton County are to welcome the planners, she said.
