~ Colorado Springs Airport (COS) has been a major contributor to the economic growth of the Pikes Peak region, according to the 2025 Colorado Aviation Economic Impact Study (CEIS) released by the Colorado Department of Transportation's (CDOT) Division of Aeronautics. The study, which measures economic activity in 2023, shows a significant increase in total business revenue for COS since the previous study conducted in 2020.
Based on 2018 business revenue, the 2025 study confirms that COS generated $5.2 billion in total business revenue in 2023, a notable increase from $3.4 billion reported in the 2020 study. This represents a growth of approximately 53 percent over five years and highlights the airport's crucial role in supporting the local economy.
Acting Director of Colorado Springs Airport, Alex Kovacs, expressed his satisfaction with the results of the study, stating that it "shows an impressive growth of the economic impact generated by Colorado Springs Airport." He also emphasized that this growth underscores COS' importance in job creation and regional business expansion.
