\"Landside operations is responsible for overseeing public side airport operations and the security affecting the movement of passengers to the general public and airport tenants,\" Baer said, introducing his team and explaining the division\u0000s work.

Baer said the Airport Operations Center (AOC) and the Fire Operations Center (FOC) are both staffed around the clock: the AOC is staffed 24/7 by a dispatcher who receives calls for maintenance and operational issues and dispatches appropriate staff; the FOC receives medical and fire emergency calls and dispatches airport rescue and firefighting staff. Baer said the AOC and FOC dispatchers are cross-trained to improve operational efficiency.

Baer described the airport\u0000s ground-transportation oversight, which covers taxis, shuttles, limousines and executive cars, the consolidated rental car facility shuttle, hotel courtesy shuttles, transportation network companies (Uber and Lyft) and peer-to-peer vehicle sharing (Turo). He said the division also manages airport parking and customer experience improvements.

Baer noted the airport opened a new canopy-covered surface lot in November 2024 adding 614 parking spaces. \"We also introduced mobile pay option recently, allowing passengers to make payments via their phone for faster more convenient exit,\" he said. Baer said the airport plans to implement a new reservation system in 2025 but has not yet published the reservation tool or any reservation-change policies on the website.

During a short Q&A the chairman asked about reservation flexibility; Baer said the reservation system rollout is in the early stages and will allow customers to change or cancel reservations when it is implemented.

Baer closed by thanking his staff for maintaining continuous service across airport operations and safety functions. No formal action was taken on the presentation; it was presented under the director\u0000s report.

Sales for the new service begin March 31, airport staff said.

The announcement came during the March 27 meeting of the Oklahoma City Airport Trust, where Scott Key, assistant director of airports, said the service will be possible as the airport nears completion of a federal inspection station that will be staffed by U.S. Customs. \"This is a tremendous milestone for our airport and our city to gain this new international service by American Airlines to Cancun,\" Key said.

Key said the new nonstop flights will allow arriving international passengers to clear customs in Oklahoma City rather than at another U.S. port of entry. Airport staff did not provide details in the meeting about the staffing timeline beyond saying the inspection station is nearing completion or about specific aircraft types that will operate the route.

Sales begin March 31, and the initial schedule announced at the meeting shows service on Saturdays from Nov. 8, 2025, through April 4, 2026. No formal board action was recorded on the announcement itself; the item was presented as part of the director's report.

The announcement follows multi-year airport upgrades officials said were designed to support international service, including the federal inspection station. Airport officials encouraged residents to book early to support the new route.
