MELBOURNE, FL (February 9, 2024) - The Melbourne Orlando International Airport (MLB) is excited to invite local residents to participate in an innovative augmented reality scavenger hunt, celebrating the launch of American Airlines' new nonstop service from MLB to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). The "MLB Monumental Quest" contest, running from February 9 to March 22, 2024, promises an engaging virtual quest where participants can uncover hidden iconic D.C. monuments across Brevard County, Florida.
This unique contest seamlessly blends the excitement of a traditional scavenger hunt with interactive augmented reality technology. Participants will virtually experience the wonders of Washington, D.C., while simultaneously highlighting the ease and convenience MLB offers in transporting local passengers to the nation’s capital via the new nonstop flight from MLB to DCA.
The nonstop American Airlines flight not only simplifies travel to Washington, D.C., but also presents a significant economic opportunity for our community. The success of our seasonal weekend flights, scheduled from February 17, 2024, through May 4, 2024, holds the potential for expansion to daily service.

2022 Charlotte Douglas International Airport Report of Achievement
Giving back to the community is central to what Charlotte Douglas International Airport and its operator, the City of Charlotte Aviation Department, is about, and last year was no different.
Throughout 2022, while recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, we continued our efforts to have a positive impact on the Charlotte community. Of particular note, we spent the year sharing stories of how Connections Don't Just Happen at the Terminal - from creating homeownership and employment opportunities to supporting economic growth through small-business development and offering outreach programs to help residents understand the Airport better.
This whitepaper highlights the construction projects, initiatives, programs and events that validate Charlotte Douglas as a premier airport.
