Would moving the Airport to Brookley help Mobiles air service?
Relocating the Mobile Regional Airport to the Brookley Complex has significant implications for passengers and airlines at the current Airport. While Brookley is closer to South Mobile County and Baldwin County, the current location was chosen because its closer to current and future population centers. Brookley offers better access to interstates 10 and 65, though internal complex roads would require a complete restructuring. Noise over densely populated areas surrounding Brookley was a primary factor in the FAAs opposition to moving the airport. As Mobile grows, the airport will require more land for terminal, runways and parking, which is available at the current location and not at Brookley. It is uncertain whether a Brookley airport would have more flights or lower fares than the current airport. Carriers dont care about location unless it affects passenger numbers. Southwest declined Mobiles offer of Brookley because there are not enough potential passengers to support the servic
