Asheville Regional (KAVL), North Carolina: Airport seeking data from corporations

The Asheville Regional Airport is requesting assistance from corporations in the region to gather information so the airport can share that data with airliners for new, non-stop commercial air service.

"We want a realistic view of what corporation travel looks like in Western North Carolina," said Tina Kinsey, director of Air Service Development for the airport. 

Airport officials are looking for recent travel patterns, including destination and budget information.

"It's important for airports to frequently monitor the travel needs of regional businesses, and make sure that air service is a reflection of their needs," said Andrew Tate, executive director of the Henderson County Partnership for Economic Development. 

"Our job here at the airport is to advocate and be a liaison to help airlines know our market so they can make good use of their resources," Kinsey added.
