A forgotten SoCal airport impacted by the 2008 recession that is now the fastest-growing in the U.S.

THEIR STORY:

Located 35 miles east of downtown Los Angeles, Ontario International Airport (ONT), is in the center of Southern California. It is a full-service airport, offering nonstop commercial service to two dozen major airports in the U.S., Mexico, Central America and Taiwan.

Serving more than 6 Million passengers/year and one of the nation’s leading cargo powerhouses, ONT is a certified great place to work and ranks as the #1 Airport in California for Traveler Satisfaction by J.D. Power (2023).

Based on a study conducted by Oxford Economics, ONT is an economic engine for Southern California, generating $3.8 billion per year in activity and supporting 27,800 jobs.

THEIR NEEDS:

Southern California is the only region in the U.S. with six major airports for the traveling public to choose from. This oversaturated market does not only create a competitive landscape for travelers but also for airlines, businesses, and major corporations looking to expand their growth in partnership with an airport.

As a result, one of ONT’s main goals is awareness; especially among the nearly 5 million residents residing in the Inland Empire (San Bernardino and Riverside Counties).

In short, with a behemoth like LAX down the freeway, ONT needed to stand out and they knew D319 could help them take off in unimaginable ways.
