The Department of Transportation awarded $750,000 to the Tri Cities Airport-Port of Pasco through the Payments for Small Community Air Service Development program to implement a minimum revenue guarantee and marketing program. The goal is to recruit and support new air service connecting Pasco, Washington to Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport to improve national transportation system access. The project grant funding will be used from September 2022 to January 2028 to facilitate better connections from the Tri Cities area to the rest of the country through the major Dallas/Fort Worth hub airport. The Small Community Air Service Development program aims to enhance air service and increase national system access for small U.S. communities through initiatives like minimum revenue guarantees and promotional activities.
