Clevelands Burke Lakefront Airport faces closure debate amidst Avelos past interestMayor Justin Bibb advocates for Burkes closure due to underutilization, while community leaders like Mark Zannoni push for revitalization. Avelo, a low-cost airline, expressed interest in starting service from Burke but never proceeded after receiving cost information. Zannoni believes the city missed an opportunity to attract Avelo, while the airlines spokeswoman confirms their past inquiry but states they are currently focused on existing routes. The city has commissioned studies for Burkes closure, considering congressional intervention to bypass the Federal Aviation Administration process.
