ECP having growing pains

PANAMA CITY, Fla. — The addition of American Airlines service at Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport (ECP) in West Bay, combined with increasing flights on other airlines, has resulted in crowded gate and office space. "We are reaching the constraints of the terminal," Airport Executive Director Parker McClellan said after Wednesday's airport authority board meeting. "I'm working with our staff and a consultant for future development (of the terminal)," McClellan said, added that the fact that the airport is getting crowded "is a great sign that our region is growing."
