Mayor Greg Fischer recently reappointed Philip J. Lynch as Chairman of the Louisville Regional Airport Authority's Board of Directors.
Lynch is Vice President, Director of Corporate Communications for Brown-Forman. He has served on the board since April 2003, elected Vice Chairman in January 2004 and appointed Chairman in November 2009.
Prior to his appointment to the Board, he was actively involved in the Louisville Airport Improvement Project (LAIP), which constructed a new airport on top of the old one.
On Wednesday, July 11, Delta Airlines launched new, nonstop service to John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in New York City from Louisville International (SDF). This daily flight provides easy access to the city and dozens of domestic and international destinations. In addition to the new JFK service, Delta also added a second daily flight to LaGuardia Airport (LGA) in March.
"We applaud Delta's commitment to Louisville and their significant enhancement of service to the New York City area," said Skip Miller, Executive Director of the Louisville Regional Airport Authority. "With 27 daily flights to six nonstop destinations - including two major New York area airports - Delta is connecting our region to the world."
With this newest service to JFK, Delta Air Lines offers 22 daily nonstop jet service to six destinations - Atlanta, Detroit, Memphis, Minneapolis, New York-LaGuardia and New York-JFK.
