On Monday, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced it would be awarding nearly $1 billion to airports across the country to keep up with air travel demand.
The funding, part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, would go to 99 airports in 47 states and two territories to help with larger security checkpoints; faster, more reliable baggage systems; and better roadways and multimodal connections; as well as increase terminal sustainability and improve accessibility, the FAA said.
