Travel slowly moving to pre-pandemic levels at GTRA Mike Hainsey
Until Thursday, Mike Hainsey hadn’t had a speaking engagement in about 18 months, so the Golden Triangle Regional Airport executive director had plenty to cover during his appearance at the Columbus Exchange Club luncheon at Lion Hills Center.
It’s been a tough year and a half for air travel, an industry hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic, beginning in April 2020 when you could almost count the passengers who passed through GTRA on one hand just 211. In 2020, GTRA’s traffic was down 70 percent from 2019, when the airport was booming with four daily flights to Atlanta through Delta Airlines.
