US Airports urged to expand to meet demand

Atlanta - US Secretary of Transportation, Mary E Peters, stated

that many of the nation’s busiest airports and metropolitan areas —

such as Atlanta, Houston, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, San Diego, Las Vegas, Phoenix,

and West Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale, FL — will require additional

capacity, which may include the building of new airports, in the next two decades

if they are to address the flood of flyers headed their way.
