Listen up Los Angeles. The Inland Empire is sending out a message they hope is loud and clear: Set Ontario Free!
 
The battle to gain local control of L.A./Ontario International Airport is heating up. The new regional authority, The Ontario International Airport Authority held its first meeting recently. The first order of business? The commission elected officers, to begin planning for the initial operation and manage of the airport, should the OIAA gain control. Currently Los Angeles World Airports manages the airport. 
 

Passenger traffic at Ontario International Airport continued to decline in September, and the number of people flying into and out of Inland Southern California’s largest airport is down significantly on the year, a report released Friday found.

A little more than 339,000 passengers used the airport’s two terminals in September, a 5.8 percent decrease from September 2011, according to a report by Los Angeles World Airports, which owns ONT. For the first nine months of the year more than 3.2 million passengers used the airport, 5.6 percent fewer than the same period in 2011.
