COLUMBUS, Ohio Airports in Columbus are getting ready for takeoff as the summer season is getting closer.
In a press release, the Transportation Security Administration announced it has launched efforts to hire more people at airports nationwide, including John Glenn Columbus International Airport and Rickenbacker International Airport.
There are nearly 50 full-time and part-time positions open at John Glenn International. We re anticipating through the summer and at the end of fall some significant increases of volume, said Don Barker, federal security director for Ohio. We re prepping for that by bringing people on board and hiring back up to the numbers we had pre-COVID.

COLUMBUS – A new law allows Ohioans to have liquor delivered to their homes, but it could be a while before that option is available.
House Bill 674, which took effect Monday, allows Ohio Division of Liquor Control vendors to deliver liquor in the original container. But the Liquor Control superintendent must create rules on how that will work, then vendors need to accept those new rules. That process is expected to last at least until the end of summer.
Ohioans won t need to wait as long on other changes. The new law also allows travelers to consume alcohol in more areas of Ohio s airports – if the airports governing bodies approve the change.
