The University of Illinois-Willard Airport is an essential strategic economic engine for Champaign-Urbana and Central Illinois. Air service is an essential asset in the economic development of our communities.
Fly Champaign-Urbana is excited to launch the Fly Local campaign for employers, businesses, and local government to pledge their commitment to supporting Willard Airport.
By signing the pledge, you can commit to:
- When making air travel decisions for our company and its employees, we will always consider flying in and out of CMI first.
- We will always consider the overall expense of business travel when making air travel decisions for our organization. Such costs include employee travel time, automobile reimbursement, parking fees, and time savings that it frequently takes to get through security at CMI versus other airports.
