Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport — known by its ECP designation — has earned a spot among the nominees for USA TODAY's 10Best Readers' Choice Award in the Best Resort Airport category, marking the second consecutive year the Panama City Beach-area airport has received the recognition.
Voting is open to the public now through October 5 at 11 a.m. The awards process combines expert panel nominations, editorial review by USA TODAY 10Best editors, and a public vote to determine the final winners across a range of travel and lifestyle categories.
The nomination arrives at a notable moment for ECP: the airport is reporting its busiest year on record and has recently broken ground on its largest expansion project since it first opened its doors.
Travelers and locals who want to show their support for the Panhandle's gateway airport can cast their votes on the USA TODAY 10Best website before the October 5 deadline. This story was first reported by WJHG.
