Akron, Ohio Jet Charters

Akron Jet Charter Information

Formerly known as the Rubber Capital of the World, Akron is now more commonly referred to as the City of Invention. This Ohio city comes with a lot of unexpected history. When you book private charter flights to Akron, you'll instantly notice that the small town charm draws you in and entices you to explore everything Akron has become famous for. From shopping along King James Way, aptly named after the NBA superstar born and raised here, to pedalling along the 85-mile scenic bike path, Akron is full of hot spot destinations. For music lovers, Akron's legnedary music scene is worth investigating. Home to Devo, The Black Keys, and Chrissie Hynde, the "jazz corridor" of the Midwest has been churning out musical sensations since the 1940s. Although music has become central to Akronites everywhere, the nightlife is just as revered. The Historic Arts District is rife with indie movie theatres, some of the best jazz clubs in the country, and fabulous dining options. Even in the dead of winter, Akron has something to offer: Winterfest. With four seasons jam packed with activities, Akron is the perfect place to visit anytime of year. During the 20th century, Akron was labeled ‘Rubber Capital of the World’ due to it being the home to major tire companies’ headquarters such as:

• Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company
• Goodrich Corporation
• Firestone Tire and Rubber Company

This industry slowly declined by the 1990s, and around 2000, Akron began to focus on polymer production, for which much of the research is conducted at the University of Akron. Akron is located in the Great Lakes region and experiences a humid continental climate, with cold winters and humid summers.
