Pasco, WA – Just three months after beginning service at Tri-Cities Airport (PSC), American Airlines is already expanding its offerings. Beginning in September, the legacy carrier will provide twice-daily service between PSC and Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX), a major hub for the airline.
American Airlines will continue to utilize a three-class Embraer 175 with room for 76 passengers. Per the airline’s website, the fall schedule will be:

“Phoenix, with its easy connectivity to Latin America and the entire American Airlines network, has quickly proven popular for the Tri-Cities region,” said Buck Taft, Director of Tri-Cities Airport. “I have no doubt that this second daily flight will be a success, and look forward to American Airlines’ continued growth at our airport.”
The announcement of the additional flight adds to PSC’s increased usage by both passengers and airlines. Last year was the airport’s busiest year on record, with roughly 873,000 total passengers, and now three airlines have added flights since January: Avelo Airlines began service to the Sonoma wine country May 1 and Alaska Airlines will fly to Los Angeles (LAX) in October.
The second daily flight to Phoenix will be available beginning September 5. Tickets are on sale now at aa.com.

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.
