Syracuse, New York –The Syracuse Regional Airport Authority (SRAA) announced today the launch of an informational webpage for parking/landside development plans at Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR). The public is encouraged to occasionally check the webpage for updates as the project evolves.
“Projects of this scale take time, patience, and plenty of communication with all our stakeholders,” said SRAA Executive Director Jason Terreri. “The SRAA is committed to enhancing our travelers’ experience the moment they arrive on our airport property. This project will increase parking capacity, vastly improve the landside experience in all weather conditions, and increase the efficiency travelers experience when arriving to and departing from our airport via ground transportation.”
In April 2022, the SRAA board approved a future landside concept that will be used to guide development of the final design. The approved concept will provide an estimated 44% increase in parking capacity, all weather protection, and shorter walking distances for a greater number of customers parking at the airport.

Fairbanks International Airport Baggage Transport Conveyor Enhanced With Mod Drive™ System
Airports face a host of unique industry challenges, such as meeting efficiency regulations and seeking out the best maintenance practices to reduce costs and keep operations flowing. In today’s current economic climate, any potential cost savings can go a long way.
In 2019, Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) sought to modernize its equipment and operations. They were dissatisfied with the performance of the gearmotors on their baggage transport conveyors and began searching for new suppliers. Regal approached FAI with a solution that could improve equipment performance and simplify maintenance, with the added benefit of energy cost savings: the Hub City® MOD Drive™ system.
