The Arizona Department of Transportation Aeronautics Group recently named Prescott Regional Airport Ernest A. Love Field (PRC) as the state’s 2020 Airport of the Year, according to a news release by the City of Prescott.
“It is truly an honor for the city to receive this recognition from ADOT-Aeronautics for the hard work and accomplishments our team at PRC has accomplished the past year,” said Prescott Mayor Greg Mengarelli.
ADOT-Aeronautics Group Director Don Kriz presented the award at the Oct. 22 Arizona Airports Association’s 2020 Walter Burg Arizona Airport’s Association Fall Conference. The virtual conference included over 130 airport officials, Federal and State regulatory officials, legislators and consulting firms.
This is the second time that PRC has been awarded the ADOT-Aeronautic Arizona Airport of the Year within the past decade, the last time occurring in 2014.
Last year, PRC’s awards included: 2019 Outstanding Airport Award – FAA Western Pacific Region, 2019 International Council of Air Shows – Best Civilian Airshow, 2019 Airport Executive of the Year – Airport Director Dr. Robin Sobotta.
