Sponsorship Objectives

The Airport will only consider requests that promote the airport. All sponsorships are subject to governing federal law and the Federal Aviation Administration’s Policy and Procedures concerning the Use of Airport Revenue, found at 64 Fed. Reg. 7696 (February 16, 1999). As a sponsor, AZO requires the audience not only to know that we are a sponsor, but also to learn about the airport and its services. We prefer to participate in sponsorships that include media or speaking/video presentation opportunities. We therefore require ample time and space to deliver a strategic message, and, at a minimum, have our logo accompanied by a specific graphic or link to our website.

Sponsorship Elements

Media value: TV, radio, newspaper, magazines, and social media

Ticket Donations

The Airport does not have the ability to give tickets to fundraising efforts as those are distributed by the individual airlines. In support of local community efforts, The Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport is pleased to provide information to charitable organizations to obtain complimentary airline tickets. To submit a request, please contact each airline directly via the links below. Every airline has a different process for airfare requests and provides detailed guidelines and procedures for how best to proceed.
