As of summer 2014, STS is expanding their main runway and improving their secondary runway. Once this project is finished, STS hopes to attract other airlines to the airport. With the expansion and upgrades of the runway, the airport will be able to accommodate larger aircraft like the CRJ series and other regional aircraft. Jon Stout, the airport manager, said in an interview with the [http://www.pressdemocrat.com/news/1853328-181/sonoma-county-airport-expansion-expected Press Democrat], "The most promising developments include a future United Airlines flight to Denver, which is a major hub for east coast connections, and American Airlines service to Phoenix. Neither airlines have made commitments, though". This project will hopefully result in more traffic at STS.
