Grand Rapids has the Gerald R. Ford International Airport. It's a great airport and others must agree because it's a finalist for 'Best Small Airport' in USA Today.

I have a co-worker who has flown out of Gerald R. Ford International Airport several times and says its one of the best airports in the country. I finally flew out of Gerald R. Ford back in the spring and have to agree.

The flying experience is not just getting on and off the plane. Part of the experience is getting in and out of the airport with your vehicle. The shuttle to and from your vehicle. The ease of checking in your bags, security, the concourse, boarding and deplaning.

The Gerald R. Ford International Airport checks all of those boxes mentioned above. The people that work there are friendly and seem to care about your experience at the airport.
