TPA turns 50 years old
Tampa International Airport CEO Joe Lopano said the past 50 years have been a ride. He joins Good Day Tampa Bay to talk about the airport’s future and how they are celebrating the milestone.
TAMPA, Fla. - One of the best airports on the continent is celebrating a milestone.
The airport's nickname itself has even sparked the age-old debate: is it TIA or TPA?
While airplanes get passengers to their destination -- whether it's for business or pleasure -- TPA has also helped people take a break from reality without leaving their homes. The airport's social media accounts have consistently shared witty captions, funny memes, and scenic images from the skies above Tampa Bay over the years.
