• One 75-inch LCD;
• One digital information center with 75-inch LCD; and
• Commercial airtime on Authority’s hold room monitors.

Static enhancements:

• Non-lit tension fabric displays; and
• Theming and design elements.

“Des Moines is the fastest growing city in the Midwest so it’s a very exciting time to work with Des Moines International Airport,” said Morten Gotterup, President, Clear Channel Airports. “Having worked with the airport for 10 years now, our team has seen first hand the extraordinary growth and development of the city. We are impressed by DSM’s dedication to providing its customers with the kinds of innovative, advanced advertising experiences they’ve come to expect while traveling through the airport. Our new media network is certain to equip national and local brands with unique and valuable opportunities to reach the next generation of travelers to Des Moines.”

Des Moines Airport Authority Executive Director Kevin Foley adds, “Over the past ten years, our partnership with Clear Channel Airports has experienced several changes, from the introduction of digital advertising to changes in display types to the overall increase in passengers traveling through DSM. For 2017, we knew we wanted to renew and update our advertising program, and Clear Channel Airports will provide a fresh, new look to the airport that provides advertisers and travelers alike with a great experience.”
