Ontario International Airport generated $1.6 million from its in-house advertising and partnership programs, according to data released Tuesday.
From February 2021 through June 2022, advertising revenue – including tourism, food and beverage businesses, automotive and financial enterprises – were more than double the annual revenues generated previously by those sources, the Ontario International Airport Authority reported.
Airport officials recently partnered with Fox 11-TV in Los Angeles to provide weather and travel forecasts that feature live images from Ontario International, raising the airport’s profile in the greater Los Angeles market.
Also, Ontario International recently became the official airport of the Big West athletic conference.
“Since the airport’s transfer to local control nearly six years ago, we have worked to create a viable, self-sustaining aviation gateway for Southern California,” said Alan D. Wapner, president of the airport authority’s board of commissioners, in the statement. “As traffic volumes have increased, we have maintained Ontario International’s reputation as a first-rate, low-cost airport, while continuing to grow the business side of our operations.
This is a win-win for passengers, our airline partners and this vibrant region we serve.”
