CoolCleveland interview with Akron-Canton Airport

CoolCleveland.com interviews Rick McQueen and Kristie Van Auken, the dynamic duo of the Akron-Canton Airport, offering details on the audacious $110 million capital improvement plan they've recently announced. Between 2000 & 2006, CAK was the 2nd fastest growing airport in the country and they doubled their passenger ridership. Coming off this period of rapid growth, and riding high on the popularity of their flagship AirTran and Frontier airlines, Northeast Ohio's other airport will soon be expanding their largest runway to accommodate the big birds that will be able to fly anywhere in North America, including Cancun, Tornto and the Caribbean.
Rick and Kristie met with Cool Cleveland's Thomas Mulready in their recently remodeled terminal (they already spent $60 million on recent renovations), to discuss their new COSE Business Club, with comp wi-fi, printers & fax machines, available to all passengers, and they talk about developing the new Port Green Industrial Park, which, along with the nearby CAK International Business Park, has created $46 million in payroll and 1000 new jobs. www.AkronCantonAirport.com
