Does anyone have the numbers for the most direct/non stop flights Ohio's airports have? Feel free to post photos of the airports too.

It's somewhat hard to tally up the exact number of cities served and daily flights from the hub airports, given the large amount of flights, however these should be fairly accurate.

 

CVG: roughly 120 cities served nonstop with around 500 flights a day.

CLE: roughly 80 cities served nonstop with around 350 flights a day.

CMH: exactly 36 cities served nonstop with around 170 flights a day.

DAY: exactly 19 cities served nonstop with around 75 flights a day.

CAK: exactly 13 cities served nonstop with around 40 flights a day.

TOL: exactly 6 cities serve nonstop with around 20 flights a day.

YNG: 1 city served nonstop with two flights weekly.

Interesting numbers CMH_Downtown, thanks!

 

Where do people in SE Ohio go to travel by plane?  Pittsburgh?  Does Wheeling have an airport?

Well, most people in SW Ohio fly from CVG or DAY. My guess is you meant SE Ohio  :wink:.

 

Wheeling does have an airport, but it's been several years since the airport has seen any kind of commercial air service. Tri-State Airport in Huntingon, WV serves Ashland, KY and Ironton, OH; but the air service there is extremely limited (6 flights a day to 2 destinations). Most people in SE Ohio and parts of West Virginia fly from Columbus, since the airfares are generally low (Southwest and America West/USAirways, as well as no single airline dominating traffic from CMH help keep fares reasonable), the access is easy (routes 23 and 33 feed into Columbus from SE Ohio), and most major cities can be reached nonstop or direct from Columbus.

Interesting numbers CMH_Downtown, thanks!

The airport in Zanesville had commercial service at one point (like in the 60's or something like that) but not any more. CMH is correct, most of SE Ohio goes to Port Columbus. Every now and then they will travel to Pittsburgh. There has been some talk of ZZV getting some sort of commercial flights again, but who knows? I know they have a fairly active charter service. It is a nice airport with two 5,000 ft runways and they just installed a new ILS system. Ohio University has talked about starting a commercial service from the OU airport in Albany as well.
