Franklin County has signed off on a ten year advertising agreement with the new airport in Bay County which opens in May.
The Airport, which is the first new airport built in the United States in over a decade, is expected to bring tens of thousands of people to North Florida every year. The North Florida Beaches International Airport has already signed an agreement with Southwest airlines which plans to bring eight non-stop flights to the airport daily.
Franklin County wants to make sure that all of those people are aware that we are the best venue for nature-based tourism as well as uncrowded beaches, lighthouses and a variety of historical and cultural attractions. To do that, the local tourist development council has agreed to spend about 7000 dollars a year advertising in the airport.
Last week the TDC received county approval to sign a ten year agreement with the new airport that will provide space for brochures as well as advertising in the airport’s baggage area. Local tourism officials say they feel this will be an effective use of local tourist development money especially since Bay and Walton counties will be spending millions of dollars a year to bring people to the airport where they can see Franklin County’s ads.
