Fifth Third: Books for Literacy Network
Fifth Third Bank donated over 1,200 books to the Literacy Network of Greater Cincinnati (LNGC). Thirteen Fifth Third branches took part in a book drive in April.
Participating branches included all thirteen western region locations.
Customers at each branch were encouraged to bring in their gently used children’s books to donate to the Literacy Network. Many Fifth Third employees also took part in the book drive.
The Literacy Network participates in numerous book drives throughout the year with partners from various schools and companies. They then distribute them to Boys & Girls Clubs, local elementary schools, and they also hold twice-yearly book drives for LNGC volunteers to pick out books for their students.
Literacy Network President Michelle Otten Guenther stated, “Throughout the year we deliver thousands of books to schools and Boys & Girls Clubs in the Cincinnati area and also provide books to students who meet with one-on-one tutors. I am deeply grateful to Fifth Third Bank and their customers for their incredible support of our mission. We could not accomplish all that we do without the generous support of community partners like Fifth Third.”
American Airlines moves to CVG Concourse B
American Airlines is relocating its CVG operations to Concourse B. The change in concourse locations is effective, Tuesday morning, May 8 with all American flights using Concourse B gates 18, 20, 22, 24 and 26. Ticket counter check-in and baggage service locations in the main terminal will not be impacted.
American Airlines serves more than 1.1 million passengers annually at CVG with more than 230 weekly flights and 34 peak-day departures. American serves eight destinations from CVG including Charlotte, Washington D.C. (DCA), Dallas (DFW), New York (JFK), New York (LGA), Miami, Chicago (ORD) and Philadelphia.
“American’s move to Concourse B is taking place to support a major ramp rehabilitation project on all Concourse A gates over the next two years,” said Candace McGraw, chief executive officer, CVG. “Both American and Delta have been good partners supporting this relocation to enable the construction project.”
All carriers remaining in Concourse A will experience temporary gate location changes throughout the two-year ramp rehabilitation project.
In conjunction with American’s move to Concourse B, CVG will be opening several additional concessions on the east side of the concourse. Hop & Cask, a new bourbon-themed restaurant will open on May 8th as well as a familiar favorite Great American Bagel.
