Dayton Airport Gets Cheaper
While Cincinnatians have been using the Dayton Airport for years because of it's proximity & it's fares being incredibly lower than the Kentucky Airport, they just reduced boarding fees by a dollar.
Meanwhile, Delta has cut prices and service at the Kentucky Airport, but Dayton still beats KY's prices.
Is the relative convenience worth it? The only advantage for me is the bus fare to KY v the cab fare to Dayton.

Will the Springfield-Beckley Municipal Airport become the airport of choice for Dayton and Columbus travelers ?
I doubt it.
Skybus founder, John Weikle, has been talking with city officials about recreating the low budget passenger airline and basing it in the Springfield airport.
It won't be cheap. Upgrades needed would include improved and expanded taxiways, aprons, hangars, terminal areas, baggage handling, parking and security.
There is an Air National Guard base at the airport now. There was a cargo airline that operated out of the airport decades ago.
It would be a kind of odd drive for Columbusites and Daytonistas to the airport kinda hidden between 68 and 72 on a narrow little road about midway between Springfield and Yellow Springs.
I would say Mr Weikle's assertion that, "I would not be surprised to see (Springfield) eventually become the airport of choice for Dayton and Columbus travelers" is pretty far fetched.
Still, it could be a real boon to Mayberry's Mini Mart.
