The Williamsport Regional Airport will receive a $500,000 federal grant to lure a second commercial airline to the local airport, which will enable it to offer a direct connection to Dulles International Airport in Washington, D.C.
"We are excited to get it," Thomas Hart, airport executive director, said Wednesday of the U.S. Department of Transportation Small Community Air Service Development grant. "It will assist in our efforts to recruit another airline."
