Check out this great Crain’s Detroit Business story on the success of the Regional Air Alliance of West Michigan:
The Regional Air Alliance of West Michigan will go out of business at the end of 2013, its four-year mission to upgrade Gerald R. Ford International Airport having been accomplished.
The airport’s passenger satisfaction numbers have improved; more people are flying out of Grand Rapids instead of driving to Detroit or Chicago to catch a plane; and Ford International now has Southwest Airlines, the nation’s largest low-cost carrier.
