Non-stop service from CAK to Detroit is no more, as of Monday evening's final Delta Airlines departure.

The Canton Rep is reporting that Delta is now only serving Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport out of Akron-Canton.

Director of Marketing for CAK tells the paper that they will continue working with Delta, though, to "explore other opportunities."

Akron-Canton Airport was so pleased with the turnout and outcome of February's "Mom's Tour" event that they're hosting round two Tuesday, June 13th. There will be a morning and evening session. 

The "Mom's Tour" is open to both moms AND dads, and is geared towards making a parent's and child's flying experience as seemless as possible.

Akron-Canton Airport Offers More Full-Experience Tours to Moms GREEN, Ohio – An excited group of local moms joined Akron-Canton Airport (CAK) during the first-of-its-kind full-experience airport tour focused on traveling with kids. The response was so positive that CAK will offer additional tours to the community to reach more families who might have concerns about flying with their little ones. The next group of CAK Mom’s Tours will be held at the airport on Tuesday, June 13, with two options available. The morning tour will take place from 10-11:30 a.m. and the afternoon tour, 5:30-7 p.m.

“We enjoyed seeing how well-received our first Mom’s Tour was in the community,” said Rick McQueen, President and CEO of Akron-Canton Airport. “And, we look forward to continuing to offer such a great opportunity and resource to parents and families to help prepare them and make their travel experience as enjoyable as possible.”

The CAK Moms Tour is designed to help alleviate anxiety parents have while traveling with little ones. CAK understands that the travel experience with kids can feel intimidating and the team wants to do everything possible to make the journey easy-breezy for each family that chooses CAK for their travel adventures.

During the tour, moms will park, ride the shuttle bus to the airport, walk through the airline check-in process with their little ones, pass through security screening with baby gear, and navigate through the airport to their gates. Representatives from Spirit Airlines and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will cover common questions, such as what baby gear travels free, what kid-friendly snack items can be taken through TSA, and more. CAK plans to host these tours twice a year, with room to grow based on demand. The two upcoming tours are open to the public, and moms can sign up online at http://www.akroncantonairport.com/flying-with-kids/tour-sign-up. Space is limited and participation will be confirmed on a first come, first served basis. Parents are encouraged to ask questions and share their family-friendly ideas with the airport.

A Flying with Children resource guide that includes helpful tips about traveling with kids, including airlinespecific requirements for carry-on items, strollers, car seats and ticket purchases, as well as an outline of TSA rules for child nutrition and screening procedures is available on akroncantonairport.com.
