The airport saw a record-breaking 4.17 million passengers in 2024 and is in the midst of a major $600 million project called Elevate. Crews are building a consolidated car rental facility and working on the terminal enhancement project, which will relocate ticket counters. The air traffic control tower is set to be relocated and a new parking garage is set to be built.

The airport has recently added more nonstop domestic flights, and is working to add a federal inspection station that will make way for international direct flights, like a potential nonstop flight to Cancun.

In 2023, the airport opened a newly expanded Concourse A. Other recent additions include an indoor animal relief area and a sensory room, along with several food and beverage options.
