The Monroe City Council is collaborating with Grow NELA to increase flight options from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport to Monroe. Discussions with American Airlines have led to a proposed minimum revenue guarantee, a standard practice for launching new routes.

Grow NELA is advocating for this expansion to accommodate rising demand linked to the Meta Data Center and other local projects. The initiative aims to support regional economic development and address infrastructure challenges associated with this growth. Plans to enhance flight services from additional airports are also in consideration.
