Recent Airport Renovation, Unique Conference Spaces and Fun Group Attractions Make Redding and Shasta Cascade an Exceptional Meeting Destination
REDDING, Calif., March 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- With magnificent mountains to fascinate, flowing waters to liberate, accommodations to rejuvenate, not to mention an airport update, organizers from meeting planners to film scouts are getting a better understanding about why Redding's surroundings are called the Shasta Cascade Wonderland. Groups can leave traffic, parking challenges, and typical routines behind and welcome the fresh air, wide open spaces and inspiration of this region. And, getting to and from Redding and Shasta Cascade is easier than ever, thanks to the completion of a three-year, $9.3 million expansion of the main terminal building at the Redding Municipal Airport, which added 17,000 square feet. Plus recently, United Express began offering jet service in and out of Redding, increasing passenger capacity and reducing ticket prices.
