PPIHC WELCOMES FLY COS AS OFFICIAL AIRPORT PARTNER
Colorado Springs, CO – We are pleased to announce a 2023 partnership with Fly COS, the Colorado Springs Airport – now The Official Airport of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. Billed as Colorado’s small airport, COS offers six carriers – American, Avelo, Delta, Southwest, Sun Country and United with daily nonstop flights and hundreds of connecting options, ideal for those traveling to the area for the iconic Race to the Clouds. “As the gateway to the Pikes Peak Region, the Colorado Springs Airport is thrilled to welcome Pikes Peak International Hill Climb participants and race fans alike to the greatest automotive race in America,” said Greg Phillips, Director of Aviation.
The race was first staged in 1916, the vision of Colorado Springs businessman and philanthropist, Spencer Penrose. “The Hill Climb works hard to take cues from the Penrose legacy of promoting tourism in the Pikes Peak Region,” shared Melissa Eickhoff, PPIHC Executive Director. “Directly, people from around the world travel to Colorado Springs to experience the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. And through the millions we reach with publicity and our race day livestream, we find ways to feature the beauty, adventure, and history of the region. Partnering with the Colorado Springs Airport is a natural fit. Not only is it convenient, but the Pikes Peak views from the concourse beckon travelers to experience America’s Mountain.”
