US President Donald Trump will rename a Florida airport after himself

An airport in Florida will soon be renamed after US President Donald Trump after a bill proposing the change was passed in the state legislature on Thursday (February 19, 2026).

Trump, a real estate mogul who has emblazoned his name on buildings around the world, has sought to make his mark on the nation in an unprecedented image and architecture campaign.

Florida’s Republican-led legislature has passed a bill to make Palm Beach International Airport the “President Donald J. Trump International Airport.” Governor Ron DeSantis, a one-time opponent of Mr. Trump, is expected to sign the measure into law.

Palm Beach’s airport, a town known for its sandy beaches and luxury estates, is just minutes from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence.

An airport name change also requires the approval of the Federal Aviation Administration.

It will be the latest company to be renamed by Mr. Trump.
