Miami Airport Eyes Up Long-Haul Connections With Asia

Miami-Dade County Commissioners want Miami International Airport (MIA) to secure nonstop passenger service to Asia, with Singapore and Tokyo identified by the facility as the first two target markets. Miami International currently has no nonstop services to Asia. An October 16 resolution directed Mayor Daniella Levine Cava to pursue the routes, indicating that they could provide benefits for tourism, business connectivity, and the city’s appeal to global companies.
