President's Corner
At Akron-Canton Airport (CAK), these last few months have been inspiring on many levels. More passengers are coming through our doors at an accelerated pace than the last two pandemic years. There is a lot more activity in the terminal, which is ideal as the summer travel months approach. We also have local business development efforts being planned as the year progresses.
While Spirit Airlines will pause service from CAK to Orlando and Myrtle Beach this summer, we remain proud to offer service aboard Allegiant, American, Breeze, and United Airlines to 15 nonstop destinations. With your continued support, CAK has been able to add more dots to our route map. We continue to pursue new air service opportunities and look forward to Spirit resuming this fall.
We know there is lots more work to do on your behalf. As the federal mask mandate has been lifted, we will continue to keep you informed on the relevant issues affecting your hometown airport. I look forward to seeing you through CAK in the coming months; please message me with any questions or inquiries.
Warmly,
- Ren

CAK Travel Tips
Please arrive 90-minutes prior to your scheduled departure and check with your carrier for any flight changes. While experienced travelers who frequent CAK can make it from their car to the gate in a matter of minutes, we encourage everyone to allow for adequate time prior to departure. We can't wait to welcome you to CAK.
Business Catalyst Program
We recently introduced a business catalyst program where local entrepreneurs have a new opportunity to establish a footprint here at CAK, reaching thousands of potential customers each week. Our goal is to provide a more diverse and inclusive environment, one which includes participation with local organizations, faith-based groups, and businesses that are intentional with equitable opportunities for disadvantaged, female, and small businesses.
This program is piloted by Defining Enterprises, LLC, an Akron-based multi-faceted, female, minority-owned enterprise (pictured above).?
