James M. Cox Dayton International Airport
James M. Cox Dayton International Airport (IATA: DAY, ICAO: KDAY, FAA LID: DAY),
also referred to as simply Dayton International Airport, is a public airport
located nine miles (14 km) north of the central business district of Dayton, a
city in Montgomery County, Ohio, United States. The airport is situated in the
Dayton suburb of Vandalia and it is owned and operated by the City of Dayton.
It was founded in 1936 when the city purchased the original private airstrips
from a corporation. It is named after James M. Cox, a former governor of Ohio,
Democratic presidential nominee, and publisher of the Dayton Daily News.
Dayton International Airport handled 1,306,237 passengers in 2006.
The airport was a hub for Piedmont Airlines until its merger with USAir. After
the merger, USAir continued to maintain Dayton as a hub for a short while before
eliminating some of its "long" routes like those to Los Angeles, San Francisco,
Dallas and to Floridian cities in preference to its Pittsburgh and Indianapolis
hubs. USAir, and its successor US Airways, sustained Dayton as a Midwest
focus-city with routes to cities like Grand Rapids, Indianapolis, and Columbus
with routes to some other cities like Boston plus US Airways hubs in Pittsburgh,
Charlotte, Philadelphia, New York City, and Washington, D.C.. The airport also
served as a hub for Emery Worldwide, a freight carrier.
It currently serves as the headquarters for US Airways Express carrier PSA
Airlines. Dayton has emerged as an attractive destination for more airlines and
more airline destinations in recent years, notably from low fare carriers.
AirTran Airways and Frontier Airlines have emerged as significant competitors at
Dayton to the "legacy" carriers.
Dayton was served by Independence Air and ATA Airlines until the dramatic
changes at those airlines resulted in service being dropped.
Expansion room exists, with plenty of open gates and even the entire Concourse D
- the one formerly used by Piedmont Airlines and USAir for their mini-hub
operation.
