Springfield Airport Sets Records And Announces New Projects

 

2024 was a banner year for the Springfield Airport with a total of 1,426,922 total passengers served, up 10.4% from last year.

In order to keep up with the growth, Airport Director Brian Weiler announced four new projects while asking passengers to “bear with us” as improvements take place.

Projects include replacing the carpeting at the terminals, replacing five of the airport’s ten jet bridges, expanding the tarmac around the terminals, and almost doubling the size of the short-term parking lot.

The total investment in these projects is estimated by the Springfield Airport to cost $25.4 million.
