SARASOTA, Fla. — Travelers looking to fly out of Sarasota Bradenton International Airport have been out of luck since Hurricane Milton moved through the area. But their luck changes starting Wednesday.
The airport announced that repairs to the terminal roof due to damage from Hurricane Milton have been successfully completed, opening the door to the public.
The terminal's doors officially opened at 6 a.m. Wednesday and the first commercial flight out of the airport is scheduled for 9 a.m.
The airport said passengers should still check with their airlines for any schedule updates. More information on the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport can be found here.

"I cried, of course, because I've worked very hard getting it nice, which has been difficult for me since I lost my husband and being alone,” Kelly Welty said.
Welty's mobile home lost its roof during Hurricane Milton. She said it was the only one in the Buena Vista community to get totaled by a tornado.
