"Charter One is a recognized and trusted financial institution in Ohio, and
BAA Cleveland is happy to welcome the bank to the airport," said Tina LaForte,

strategically located throughout the terminal at CLE, offering added
convenience to travelers who need access to their bank accounts."

the airport's main goals with the new concessions program - an enhanced
passenger experience," added Airport Director Ricky Smith.
