As this October evening settles in over our little corner of Maine, we hope today gave you a reason to smile and something to be grateful for.

Tomorrow is another day, another sunrise, and another chance to make something wonderful happen.

Goodnight, Bangor. πŸ’™

On October 21, 2015, Marty McFly arrived in what was then THE FUTURE. Eleven years later, we're still waiting for flying cars, but for now, we've at least got the flying part covered! βœˆοΈπŸ˜‰

We're curious...if you could hop into Monty's time machine and travel to any decade, past or future, where would you go?

They may be high above the airfield, but they're at the heart of everything that happens here at BGR!

Today is International Day of the Air Traffic Controller, and we're sending a big π—§π—›π—”π—‘π—ž 𝗬𝗒𝗨 to our friends at Bangor Tower BGR ATCT!

From the first departure of the morning to the arrivals that come long after most of us have called it a day, these dedicated professionals help keep aircraft moving safely through our skies.

It's a job that requires incredible focus, precision, and the ability to stay cool under pressure. And we're grateful to have such a great team watching over our corner of the aviation world.

We appreciate you, Bangor Tower! πŸ’™

If you've ever flown through Bangor International Airport and wondered whether those creepy little Langoliers might be lurking somewhere nearby... well, this episode of 𝑢𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 π‘­π’π’š is for YOU. 😳

More than 30 years ago, Hollywood came to Bangor when Stephen King's The Langoliers was filmed right here at BGR. And apparently, some of those toothy little monsters never quite left our reputation behind. πŸ˜‚

Just in time for Halloween, we're taking a trip back to the early 1990's with three people who know a thing or two about what happened when the cameras started rolling! 🎬

Joining us are BGR retirees Heidi Suletzki and Bob Jarvis, who experienced the filming firsthand (and Bob even made it onto the screen!), along with local Stephen King historian and former Betts Bookstore owner Stu Tinker.

We're talking movie magic, airport memories, and a little Bangor history that might just make you look twice the next time you're walking through our terminal. πŸ‘€

🎧 Our special spooky-season episode of 𝑢𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 π‘­π’π’š drops TODAY! Listen on our website or wherever you get your podcasts. (Head to the comments for a link!)

We'll see you on the fly... assuming the Langoliers don't get there first. πŸ‘» πŸ˜‰

πŸ† WELL, WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT! Apparently, we're kind of a big deal. 😁

Our friends at WBLM recently shared a list of New England's busiest airports, and guess who landed at number EIGHT?

Yep. Little ol' BGR.

Now, before anyone gets too excited, let's acknowledge that New England only has six states, and the number of airports competing for this prestigious top-ten honor isn't exactly astronomical. πŸ˜‚ But hey, we're on the list, and we're celebrating! πŸŽ‰

Of course, passenger boarding numbers only tell a small part of our story...they don't count the military aircraft that stop here, the international flights that rely on us, the cargo that moves through our airport, or the countless people working behind the scenes to keep it all moving.

Numbers certainly don't measure the heart of this place, including the familiar faces who show up at all hours, in all kinds of weather- the Maine Troop Greeters who have made BGR a place of unforgettable homecomings. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡² We're your hometown airport with a really big runway and an even bigger sense of community.

Are we the busiest airport in New England? Not even close. Are we going to enjoy our moment as number eight? You bet your boarding pass we are. πŸ˜‰

Thanks for the shoutout, WBLM! 🫢🏻

BGR Aviation's Jordan Spelios has been chasing this perfect moment for two days, waiting for just the right combination of a departing aircraft and a spectacular Bangor sky.

Tonight, everything lined up and she nailed it.πŸ‘πŸ‘ 😍

Two different views. Same sunrise. And absolutely no subtlety from the sky this morning. πŸ˜πŸŒ…

Friday understood the assignment! From pinks and purples to fiery orange, BGR got quite the wake-up call.

Here’s to a weekend full of colorful fall adventures, whether you’re boarding a plane or taking the scenic route right here in Maine. Get out there and enjoy the view! πŸβœˆοΈπŸ’™

In a place filled with departures and arrivals, there is now a special place to pause and remember. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Yesterday, we welcomed The Summit Project Honor Case to BGR, where it will remain through the holiday season. Just inside our front door, its memorial stones honor fallen Maine service members, with names and stories that invite us to learn about the lives they lived.

Behind every name is a person deeply loved and missed. A family whose lives changed forever. Friends who carry their memories. Stories that deserve to keep being told.

We are grateful to The Summit Project and Maine's Gold Star families for entrusting us with this meaningful responsibility. We will care for these stones with respect, and help carry forward the memories they hold.

The next time you’re at BGR, please take a moment to sit, read their stories and learn their names. Whether you’re heading somewhere or welcoming someone home, there is time to remember those whose homecomings we will always wish for.

A dedication ceremony will follow, but this place of reflection is ready to welcome you now.

Their stories belong with us. Their names will be spoken. MAINE HEROES ARE NOT FORGOTTEN. β€οΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²

Well, THAT was a quick change of scenery! 🌦️✈️

Mother Nature rolled in, stirred things up for a bit, and then apparently decided she had somewhere else to be. πŸ˜‚

But before she made her exit, she left us with THIS. (Photo creds to Andrea Perkins from Piedmont BGRπŸ“·β€οΈ)

Sunshine breaking through the clouds, reflections dancing across the wet ramp, and a pretty spectacular view of a busy afternoon at BGR.

Huge thanks to Andrea for catching this moment and reminding us that sometimes the best views come right after the skies clear. 😍
