Pasco, WA – The community no longer needs a boarding pass to visit the Tri-Cities Airport (PSC)! A new program, PSC Pass, gives non-travelers the ability to shop, dine, watch planes, view art exhibits, and greet friends and relatives when they arrive at the gate or accompany them before their departing flight.
Individuals interested in obtaining a PSC Pass must have a government-issued ID and can fill out an online application via the airport website. Once approved, a PSC Pass is treated like a boarding pass to give visitors access to the terminal when the TSA checkpoint opens.
Visitors must comply with the same TSA screening and inspection procedures as ticketed passengers. After clearing security, visitors can enjoy the airport terminal in its entirety.
“This program is a great opportunity for the entire community to enjoy our airport,” said Buck Taft, Director of Tri-Cities Airport. “With PSC Pass, hellos and goodbyes don’t need to be said curbside anymore. People can greet or say farewell to their loved ones right at the gate. Then, they can enjoy a meal at one of our dining options or admire our newest art exhibit before heading home.”
The PSC Pass program is limited to 10 passes per day, and participants can apply for one pass per month. More information about PSC Pass can be found on the Tri-Cities Airport website.

Fairbanks International Airport Baggage Transport Conveyor Enhanced With Mod Drive™ System
Airports face a host of unique industry challenges, such as meeting efficiency regulations and seeking out the best maintenance practices to reduce costs and keep operations flowing. In today’s current economic climate, any potential cost savings can go a long way.
In 2019, Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) sought to modernize its equipment and operations. They were dissatisfied with the performance of the gearmotors on their baggage transport conveyors and began searching for new suppliers. Regal approached FAI with a solution that could improve equipment performance and simplify maintenance, with the added benefit of energy cost savings: the Hub City® MOD Drive™ system.
