Air Service Development
BRIDGE assists Tri-Cities Airport with attracting new passenger air service.
Tri-Cities Airport (TRI) has been highlighted as a key asset that has the potential to bring both immediate and long-term benefits to the regional economy. Adding new air service typically lowers an airport's average fare. This attracts new business travelers and tourists, allowing the region to recapture business previously lost to competing airports. A thriving airport will help support economic growth throughout the region, increase tourism revenue and business investment, help increase talent attraction and retention, and improve the quality of life in the region. BRIDGE is excited to partner with Tri-Cities Airport.

"One major milestone
for the region."
​
BRIDGE was honored to take on this project and announced the effort as a part of a new strategic plan unveiling in December 2024.
Fast forward 7 months later to July 2025 - BRIDGE announced the successful recruitment of a new airline and addition of two new direct flights.
