Tourists have discovered our Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport. Located in the southeast valley in Mesa, close to Gilbert, Queen Creek, Apache Junction and Gold Canyon, it has become "the" airport for more than 100,000 passengers in just the past three months. 70 percent of these passengers were visitors to the Valley. Carrier Allegiant Air studied the routes since startup and determined only 24 to 25 percent traveling out of Gateway are Arizona residents.
I've written about the airport before, and am excited to see that it is becoming a convenient hub to fly into town. Phoenix Sky Harbor is so busy, that it makes total and complete sense to come into Gateway. Allegiant doesn't advertise in Phoenix or Mesa. Their business strategy is to bring customers to a leisure destination working with valley hotels and rental cars.
I, on the other hand, tell all of my clients about this airport. I am, after all, in the southeast valley - and it makes perfect sense to me to fly in and out of Gateway if a flight is offered.
Many business are near and will be even more visible in future years. I've plucked a copy of the "vision" for Phoenix-Mesa Gateway from the East Valley Tribune so readers can better understand what will be going on.
This is HUGE for our area. Phoenix is alive and well!! For those considering a trip to or from the Phoenix Valley, be sure to stop by Phoenix Mesa Gateway for flight information.
(I tried the new tool shared by Katerina, but lost it. I'll figure it out........);-)
