A: Northern Kentucky offers aviation companies direct access to CVG Airport, the 6th largest cargo hub in North America and 12th globally, home to Amazon Air’s primary U.S. hub, DHL’s Global Super Hub for the Americas, and a major UPS hub. The region supports 20,000+ direct aerospace jobs statewide, has a 32% projected MRO growth rate, and has seen over $370 million in aviation investment since 2022 from FEAM AERO, L2 Aviation, DHL, and Epic Flight Academy. Kentucky’s incentive programs (KEIA, KBI, AERO Act scholarships) provide direct financial support for hangar construction, equipment purchases, and workforce training. CVG’s $10.5 billion annual economic impact and 55+ nonstop destinations to North America and Europe complete the case.
