Statement From Governor Kathy Hochul

"Upstate airports connect New Yorkers to destinations across America and around the globe. New York State recognizes the critical role these gateways play to a vibrant economy, committing record investment to improve airports throughout Upstate New York, including $32 million to modernize Greater Binghamton Airport. I am pleased that Delta has identified available aircraft in order to resume daily service at BGM in the Spring. Preserving this flight is a win for the entire Southern Tier, ensuring that this newly modernized airport serves travelers for years to come and that is why I fought so hard to protect this lifeline for workers and businesses in the Binghamton area."
