A historic name change is expected for an international airport. The airport's board will vote to approve the new name, with all seven members anticipated to be in favor. The proposed new name is Dolly Parton International Airport.

The airport's three-letter designation will remain unchanged, honoring its original builder. The renaming decision has received endorsements from the governor and the airport's CEO, as well as apparent agreement from Parton's family and foundation. Further details on the renaming process are available, including the next steps following the board's vote.

The decision is expected to be unanimous, with the official name change to follow after the vote is confirmed.
