On January 10, 1947, the first commercial flight landed at what was then called the Greater Cincinnati Airport in the Boone County, Kentucky hamlet of Hebron. Officials in Cincinnati saw this as a temporary situation and continued their ultimately unsuccessful efforts to bring the area’s main commercial airport to Blue Ash. Today the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Airport, better known by its airport code CVG, in Hebron, Kentucky is one of the top U.S. airports.
