These three other airports are located in Gettysburg, New Cumberland and Chambersburg.Daniel is correct when he stated that it wasn't indicated that Lancaster Airport was slow, but that from a commercial aviation marketing/advertising standpoint, HIA considers our direct competition to be Philadelphia and Baltimore Washington airportsLancasteria, you're welcome to contact me directly should you have any questions or comments.

We've worked diligently for years to get an AMTRAK station at the airport, but at this point I am not quite sure when it would become a reality.

Carmalena,
Thank you for the feedback. We’ve worked diligently for years to get an AMTRAK station at the airport, but at this point I am not quite sure when it would become a reality. Thanks for considering to fly HIA, it’s much appreciated!

If only the train went there from Lancaster! That's one of the main reasons I go to PHL... I’d love to use HIA more… If only the train went there from Lancaster!

I don't believe we made any comments that the Lancaster airport is slow, but rather simply that in marketing terms, HIA doesn't consider it a competitor because of the kinds of flights the Lancaster airport offers.Also, I hope you have the chance to listen to the episode. We had Stephanie on the show to talk about HIA's marketing efforts in Lancaster. That was the local bent. Thanks for the comments.

It may not have near as much commercial service, but I don't think you'll find any $99 round trip flights at HIA either. They also have a few trips to Orlando every year. Kind of funny plugging a Harrisburg business on a LANCASTER website.
