Advertiser Staff

Honolulu International Airport will receive $6.4 million in federal funds to replace 13 passenger loading bridges at the international terminal, Sen. Daniel Inouye said today.

"The new loading bridges will enhance passenger safety, facilitate the boarding of disabled passengers, and better accommodate the increased number of passengers," Inouye, D-Hawai'i, said in a news release.

The Federal Aviation Administration will disburse the funds for the project.
