There has been a lot of skyline and growth conversations recently with a lot of recent positive development news! I wanted to float this idea by you all. Obviously a far-fetched idea but after watching a video on “urban interchanges” taking up a lot of acreage in densely populated areas, my mind...

JetBlue’s decision to bring back MCO-PWM has certainly been a success. All flights I’ve seen to and from MCO have been 90%+ filled. This is for tomorrows flight from Portland to Orlando.

I’m a couple hours late to this party but my goodness, we are so lucky to have Redfern. Enough said.

Can’t take away 200 spots, when parking is already always filled up, to build the garage expansion. Like it or not, they need to add the 268 or so surface spaces to make up for the spaces lost in the parking garage expansion construction process which would follow close after the surface parking...

Nickelodeon/Temple Street Garage at 325… a 25-30 story building there would truly make the downtown feel close to complete!! What a change in feel that would be. Then add a couple 15-20 story buildings to the east of City Hall and you’re talkin!

Like I said… Death, Taxes, and airlines dropping MHT😂 Two years ago, Spirit, this year Sun Country, next year we will see United… wow

Delta apparently outsourced a ton of their work overseas so it’s been a process getting numbers for the Jetport recently.

They still haven’t uploaded Delta numbers. Give it a week and that will be updated to another record month.

Looking at it on Google earth, and measuring it out, I certainly think there is room to level 400 feet each way and pave to get the primary runway to 8,000 feet! Unless there are restrictions/rules I’m not aware of.

Recently, from locals or in the news, we have seen stories about recent closures or struggling business in and around Portland. There was that week or two a few weeks ago where we saw Slab, Local 188, Ananias, and another one or two close. People were in an uproar because all they’ve been seeing...

I think we may be getting extreme. All I argue is that federal and state funding should be more reflective of the impact the airport is having on the community/region. Looking at the AIP grants in the state of Maine… in 2022 Portland got a nice 11M while PQI for 8M. 2023, PWM 3M, PQI 1M, BGR...

54 million for 100 people per day… good for them! Can’t say it’s a bad move with what I have been preaching (build it, they will come). Would be great for PWM to get some much deserved federal or state funds considering they have had 5-6 record months in a row… just seems logical with the...

Death, taxes, and at least one airline leaving MHT per year! 🤣 it was Spirit that announced in 23, Sun Country 3 months after its first flight this year (2024), what will it be in 25??

This is a pretty awful sight. Re-paving a massive downtown parking lot that is hopefully going to be zoned for a building of 325 feet… when I saw the vehicles I was hoping it was some type of site work for a building!

Yes!!! This has been my message in here for years!😂 The city and Jetport must have never seen the Field of Dreams!!

Death, taxes, and airlines dropping MHT shortly after adding service.😂 Rumor has it that breeze is next.

Just pull the terminal all the way down to Gate 14!!😂 might as well go all out right?! Someday.

After spending my college years in Burlington I would certainly not put it two… or top 5. But that’s just an opinion haha! It’s tough to compete with Portland for sure. I won’t ramble on, but it certainly isn’t what it used to be and certainly isn’t the foliage paradise that the social media...

Thanks for the feedback and details guys! I’m doing a deeper dive and a presentation that I am working on that I’ll have to share when it’s complete. Would love to send in an opinion piece backed up with tons of data! I truly think there can be a lot done to keep drawing great numbers!
