Bethpage Air Show takes flight on Memorial Day
JONES BEACH STATE PARK, N.Y. - The
Bethpage Air Show, which first launched at Jones Beach in 2004, was supposed to take place over the weekend but the heavy rain put a damper on those plans. So instead, the show took place on Monday.
The show had already been canceled last year due to COVID-19 and the organizers didn t want to let the spectators down again this year. This is the first time the Bethpage Air Show has been held on Memorial Day.
Anyone who had a ticket to the weekend shows was allowed in. Also, many of Long Island s health-care heroes received passes. Anyone with tickets who weren t able to show up can either get a refund or use the tickets to enter twice at any state park this summer.
Transportation Security Administration officials reported that travel at United States airports during Memorial Day weekend increased about 500 percent over the same time last year.
