SAN BERNARDINO, CA—Ontario International Airport Authority, a body composed of Inland officials, has assumed local control of Ontario International Airport (ONT) from Los Angeles World Airports, and now, San Bernardino County residents and businesses are tasked with ensuring the airport will grow and flourish. According to the authority, airports are an important economic catalyst for many industries. They are the gateway to a region and many times provide the first impression for visitors who travel into a new area. The County will take part in its repositioning and re-emergence as the fastest growing airport in Southern California. However, County residents and businesses must now embrace the convenience of a local airport and recognize the opportunity to support ONT's growth by flying local. As a member of the Ontario International Airport Authority, the County will be part of a broader effort to drive down costs and improve service in order to make ONT a more attractive and competitive option for airline service.
