Erie International Airport
Erie International Airport (Tom Ridge Field) is a public airport five miles (8 km) southwest of Erie, in Erie County. Airline service at Erie faces stiff competition from the Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Buffalo airports, all within two hours of Erie by car. In 2004 Erie was the third fastest growing airport in the United States, and the fastest growing airport in Pennsylvania.〔(Erie Times Article, Fastest Growing )〕It is also 128 miles from Pittsburgh, 111 miles from the Canadian Border, 95 miles from Cleveland,Ohio and 105 miles from Buffalo,NY
==History==
Prior to September 11, 2001 the airport was at its height with US Airways mainline jets to Pittsburgh and international service to Toronto.〔(Canadian 737 Parked at Terminal. )〕〔(NTSB Accident Report involving a scheduled USAir flight from Toronto. )〕 After 9/11 US Airways replaced 737s and DC-9s with regional jets.〔(US Airways 737 at terminal. )〕 As air service rebounded in the mid-2000s, US Airways Express flew to Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Charlotte; Northwest Airlink to Detroit; Continental Connection to Cleveland; and Delta Connection to Cincinnati and Atlanta.
The airport is reportedly looking to expand service to New York and other cities.〔(Photos showing airlines at airport )〕 US Airways discontinued Charlotte flights in 2006. Delta Air Lines discontinued Atlanta flights on September 6, 2007. In early 2008 US Airways discontinued Pittsburgh flights. As of January 2010 US Airways Express service is three flights daily to Philadelphia; Delta Connection has five flights daily to Detroit; and United Express has two flights daily to Chicago-O'Hare.〔()〕 Across the country the cost of fuel is causing airlines to cut routes to smaller airports like Erie. Winter flights to Erie often are diverted to Cleveland or Buffalo due to weather.
Erie International is in an expansion program: expanding runway 6/24, establishing a relationship with an airport in Germany to create a cargo bridge, and attracting new airlines to more destinations. About 200,000 people used the airport in 2006, down 14% due to airlines cutting back on seats. The number of passengers did increase by 16.1% in 2010 from 2009.〔(), Erie Airport Press Release.〕
