We\u2019ve been impressed and\npleased with all of EWN\u2019s initiatives to sustain and expand airline routes\nduring a challenging time. We congratulate them for their success in bringing\nthe DC route back next summer,\u201d said Jeff Wood, Director of Craven 100 Alliance\n(C1A). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EWN is currently in the process of a major terminal\nexpansion project and has begun a runway improvement project to strengthen the\nairport\u2019s long-term appeal and functionality for airlines and passengers alike.\nThe airport also recently completed or initiated a number of other key projects\nthat will help the airport grow into the future including the new Aircraft\nRescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) facility and a commercial aircraft hangar\nfacility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coastal Carolina Regional Airport (EWN) and American Airlines have announced that their seasonal, non-stop flights between New Bern, N.C. and Washington, D.C. will begin again in June.
