After 18 Months, YNG has A NEW Website!

Well this blog has pressed the issue since August of 2005, and finally, after about 18 months, the Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport has a new website! I think I have the right to critique the website, and that I will now do!
First off, it’s a 100% improvement from the last website. It’s definitely a step up in the technological sense of things. There is some nice flash embedded into the site, and the navigation is very easy to use. I did notice a lot of things were the same in the information sense of things. For instance the terminal page, WIFI page, and a few others pages said the same thing from the last site; not that it’s that big of a deal, but I would’ve liked to have seen more information out there. The other thing I see the site could use is more photos of the terminal! Dan Crouse did a virtual video tour today up there and he is going to attempt to get it onto the official website, and it’s definately needed.
Overall I rate the site at an A-…. There are small things that could use a change, and just a few minor additions of photos would really make this site EVEN nicer. One thing I commend is the organization of the site. So many airport websites are cluttered and have way to many pages. For an airport of our size, this is just right.
I want to thank Vic Rubenstein for creating the site for free. Had they decided to pay $20-30,000 on the website, it may look like other airport sites, but this one certainly doesn’t. So again thanks Vic and Steve and the airport for getting this done, although its a year and a few months late. I THINK IT COULD USE A POLL TO SHOW AIRLINES PEOPLE WANT TO FLY FROM YNG!
PLEASE COMMENT ON THE NEW WEBSITE WITH YOUR THOUGHTS.

Hi all! I agree, it could use some photos. The virtual tour sounds like an amazing technological opportunity that must be utilized! Anyways, the new site looks great! The old one really needed replaced. Great job being so relentless to make sure this got done.
