New York Governor Kathy Hochul has announced that Delta Air Lines will resume daily service at Greater Binghamton Airport (BGM) in the spring. The move follows recent efforts by the state to invest in and modernize airports across Upstate New York.
Hochul highlighted the importance of upstate airports for both regional connectivity and economic growth. “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,” Hochul said.
The $32 million investment into Greater Binghamton Airport is part of broader state initiatives aimed at supporting transportation infrastructure and regional economies.
