The eight airports named for presidents as Trump Palm Beach renaming plan gains traction

Despite backlash over Florida lawmakers approving a bill to rename Palm Beach International Airport after President Donald Trump, the move would place him among a growing list of commanders in chief whose names already greet travelers on airport terminals across the country.

If finalized by Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Federal Aviation Administration, Palm Beach International would become the ninth commercial U.S. airport named after a president, joining hubs from New York to Houston.

The name change would go into effect on July 1 if signed into law, according to reports, making Trump the first to receive the honor while still in office.
