USA Today has named Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport (PVD) as a winner in the 2023 “USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice” travel award contest for “Best Small Airport” in the nation for 2023.

Green placed 7th in the nationwide poll after being nominated as one of the Top Ten small airports in the country by a panel of travel experts. This marks the thirteenth time that PVD has received a Top Ten national or international honor since 2017.

In announcing the 10Best Readers’ Choice awards, USA TODAY noted, “loyal fans of T. F. Green Airport in Rhode Island love it as an alternative to Boston Logan International for its lack of crowds and quick access to Providence and Boston via a dedicated train station. It’s also an excellent option for travelers heading to Cape Cod.”

Green also offers its congratulations to Gerald R. Ford International Airport (GRR) in Grand Rapids, Michigan for taking the top honor in the nation, and to all the airports selected in USA TODAY’s 10Best competition.
