The Past, Present & Future of Albuquerque’s Airport

Millions of people travel through the Albuquerque International Sunport every year, and lately, there's been a lot of changes taking place at the 'Gateway' of New Mexico. Through a massive remodel, Sunport officials are working to keep its southwestern charm; from the chairs to the cultural décor in the ceiling. This week, Chris and Gabby host Leah Black, Outreach & Marketing Manager of the Sunport, and Fred DeGuio, a Commercial Aviation Historian who wrote a book about the Sunport - to talk about the past, present, and future of the airport. New restaurants and a 'reimagining' of the facility are on the horizon. Did you know there's a 'secret' tunnel? How will the security process change?
