    OKC needs to step it up, given airlines are handing out routes like candy right now.
    OKC's route map looks awesome right now. They have stepped it up.

    It does, but OKC has a lot of double routes (meaning 2 airlines going to same place). Austin, Tampa, New Orleans. 1 will die off, unfortunately. Where as OKC needs to be going after places they don't currently have now. PDX and BOS are at the very top of my list. Otherwise, Tulsa will have more unique locales than OKC. They have been adding new locations almost weekly.

    TUL needs a few of the recent adds that OKC has to shore up its business community.

    United: SFO, IAD and EWR (resume service to IAD and EWR)
    American: LGA
    Alaska: SEA
    Southwest: BWI and BNA
    Delta: DTW (resume service)

    Yes, TUL has hit the leisure destination jackpot but lags OKC and even XNA on the business travel side. By the way, I don't think WN has brought back BWI at this point.

    Best part of this is the through service to Charleston.

    Nice rundown of the many projects, large and small, happening at Tulsa International Airport.

    Via the TulsaWorld: https://tulsaworld.com/news/local/bu...ok_Tulsa_World

    The airport continues to increase passengers and add additional routes. 2023 ended the year at 3,144,567 total passengers, an 8.8% increase over 2022 and a 4.6% increase over 2019. 2024 through August is up 4.56% from 2023. TIA recently added an additional direct to NYC (Delta). It also announced a SWA direct to Nashville starting in early 2025.

    • Artwork: A new $225,000 rotating ceiling artwork by Tulsa artist Shane Darwent has been completed.

    • New airport entry sign/monument at main vehicle entrance: $1.7 million. Construction underway. Completion expected in November.

    • Lounge: A new $2.3 million lounge that has locally-sourced food and beverages, in-house chefs and high-speed Wi-Fi, is expected to open by January.

    • New vestibules (passenger/visitor entry and exits): $2.8 million. The airport is replacing the revolving doors with sets of double-sliding doors. Completion is expected this spring.

    Customs facility: $42 million. The 45,000-square-foot facility for international passengers is under construction on the southeast side of the airport’s main terminal. Completion is expected in early 2026.

    Control tower: $110 million. Construction is underway. Completion is anticipated by late 2027, depending on the Federal Aviation Administration, equipment and other factors.
