Well, how cool is this? Not only did President Trump mention Texarkana in a tweet today. He mentioned some great news for our area.

President Trump announced on Twitter that the Texarkana Regional Airport will be awarded 3.6 million dollars in grant money to redesign and reconstruct the airport terminal building.

No doubt we are lucky to have this airport in our area but we all know, at least anyone that has flown out of there, that it could use a little updating. It was announced a while back that they were going to start working on another terminal that would be completed in a few years.  Now wouldn't it be wonderful if we are able to get another airline to fly out of Texarkana?

What airlines would you like to see fly out of Texarkana? My vote is Southwest Airlines!

Oh and how about a little snack area again? That would be wonderful too! Fingers crossed we'll start seeing some construction soon.
