Get ready to say hello to Carlsbadistan’s McClellan-Palomar Airport’s new terminal and good-bye to free parking, according to a Steven Mihailovich story in the San Diego Union-Tribune.
Due to open Nov. 17, the terminal will mark a new era for one of the busiest single-runway airports in the country, where more than 215,000 takeoffs and landings occurred last year by private planes, corporate jets and airline commuter flights.
Nice that we will be saddled with paying off the $13 million Federal Aviation loan with our parking fees. Free parking was about the only reason we liked flying out of Carlsbadistan.

I’m very excited about the new terminal. Parking will still be much cheaper than San Diego Internationa and I don’t have to fight I-5 to get there.
P.S. I dispute the number of takeoffs and landings that the Union Tribune published. I’ll have to check, but 215,000 (nearly 600 a day) sounds way high.
