The references explain how airfare price, price of traveling to the air terminal, time to get to the airport, and flight frequency are all variables considered when travelers are selecting the airport they would like to utilize. Citizens living or visiting these nearby cities or communities may consider traveling through the Punta Gorda Airport when considering the airfare price variable. The Punta Gorda Airport offers commercial flights from Allegiant Air and Sun Country Airlines, which are both low-cost airlines. CThamesPGD (talk) 15:30, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
