When you fly out of Provo, think big connections but small-airport ease. With its convenient location, the Provo Airport (PVU) has emerged as an air travel hub for residents of Utah County and beyond.
More than 2 million passengers have flown out of the airport's new terminal that opened in 2022.
The instant success of the Provo Airport has even come as a surprise to Airport Director Brian Togersen, who told KSL that his staff had no idea they'd be expanding so quickly.
"Clearly we offer something different, and people are picking up on that," Torgersen said. "That difference really is ease, convenience, it's quick, and I think that's a breath of fresh air."
Provo Airport broke ground earlier this year on an expansion that will increase the number of gates from four to 10 and allow the number of planes flying in and out to double!
Construction is expected to finish by 2028, but until then there are even more changes and additional services coming—including the addition of a major carrier to Provo's offerings.
With so many exciting updates, here's what savvy travelers need to know about Provo Airport.
