Long Beach, CA – – Clear Channel Airports (CCA), a brand division of Clear Channel Outdoor Americas (CCOA) (NYSE: CCO), and a subsidiary of iHeartMedia Inc., today announced it was awarded a five-year contract expansion with city-owned Long Beach Airport (LGB). The new agreement and media upgrades begin May 1, 2018.
Clear Channel Airports has partnered with LGB since 2005, which hosts five major airlines and offers nonstop service to 16 destinations including the most recently announced destination, Honolulu, which will be serviced by Hawaiian Airlines starting June 1. In addition to its historic 1941 Streamline Moderne terminal, the airport also opened an award-winning passenger concourse in 2012. Conde Nast Traveler voted LGB the third best airport in the U.S. in 2017, the fourth consecutive year the airport has made the prestigious list.
This rapidly growing airport experienced a 33 percent year-over-year passenger traffic growth in 2017, and thus creates a strong advertising venue for companies targeting high-end business and leisure travelers. It’s also in proximity to the world-famous Disneyland that attracts over 17 million guests annually. Approximately 3.8 million travelers are expected to pass through the airport in 2018.
California’s seventh largest city and the second largest city in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, Long Beach boasts many tourist attractions, including the Queen Mary and the Aquarium of the Pacific. Prominent industries beyond tourism, include aerospace, manufacturing, education, healthcare, electricity services, internet/cable and transportation.
“It’s common knowledge Long Beach Airport is an excellent travel alternative for Angelenos,” said Morten Gotterup, President, Clear Channel Airports. “Not only does it offer a serene oasis, it’s stunning, modern amenities draw a highly-educated, affluent frequent flyer passenger base, making Long Beach Airport an attractive advertising venue for national and regional brands.

PAVIX: Proven Winner for All Airport Concrete Infrastructure
International Chem-Crete Corporation (ICC) manufactures and sells PAVIX, a unique line of crystalline waterproofing products that penetrate into the surface of cured concrete to fill and seal pores and capillary voids, creating a long lasting protective zone within the concrete substrate.
Once concrete is treated, water is prevented from penetrating through this protective zone and causing associated damage, such as freeze-thaw cracking, reinforcing steel corrosion, chloride ion penetration, and ASR related cracking.
This white paper discusses how the PAVIX CCC100 technology works and its applications.
