SUN AIRPORT - NOW BETTER THAN EVER, READY TO SERVE

 Friedman Memorial Airport's new air passenger waiting area has plenty of room and beautiful views!


Friedman Memorial Airport reopened yesterday, May 21, with a new terminal addition that is both spacious and stunning! There will still be some additional interior design improvements made over the next few weeks with full completion and a Grand Opening celebration expected for sometime in June, date TBD. This 15,000 sq ft terminal addition, as well as the renovation of the existing terminal (still underway), is part of the $34M FMA Runway Safety Improvement Project and one of the important facets of improving the airport safety and  experience for SUN travelers.

We congratulate the Friedman Memorial Airport Authority board, staff and all the contractors for the great job on all the airport improvements.  WELL DONE!  This critical infrastructure investment has already put millions back into our local economy during construction through local jobs and spending, and it will continue to bring economic rewards for years into the future. FLY SUN!


 The open, expansive new airport terminal lobby (with furnishings still to be added) includes artwork that reflects the beauty of the Wood River Valley and highlights local artists.  The artwork will be  exhibited on a rotating seasonal basis as part of a new partnership program between the airport and the Hailey and Ketchum Arts Commissions.


 With this new terminal addition, arriving passengers at Friedman Memorial Airport (SUN) in Hailey will receive a warm and first-class welcome to the Sun Valley area. Just as they should!



TESTIMONIALS FROM SUN AIR TRAVELERS

 

"I was so excited to be able to fly my mom into the valley for a visit and not have to spend the extra time on the road, it allowed us more time to visit.   And with the new additional nonstop flights offered, we have been able to save time and money by using them to fly to California on business.  I love the ease and convenience of our local airport, FLY LOCAL!!"             - Kim Baker, local resident and business owner
