The sudden closure of Spirit Airlines is affecting the travel community. Spirit was the only commercial carrier at Arnold Palmer Regional Airport in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. Local tourism and airport leaders believe this could drive more people to the Johnstown and Laurel Highlands region. Cory Cree, manager of John Murtha Johnstown-Cambria County Airport, sees this as a positive opportunity for the Johnstown Airport to grow. The airport's marketing team is promoting the area to tourists who would have flown out of Latrobe. With free parking and direct flights to Washington and Chicago, the Johnstown Airport is being promoted as a quick and affordable stop for connecting flights. The increased travel could boost the local economy with more passengers using restaurants, hotels, and airlines.
