Ron DeSantis in March.<\/p>\n<p>The name change will cost an estimated $5.5 million, which covers signage, branding, technology systems and printed materials, according to the Palm Beach County Department of Airports.<\/p>\n<p>The airport reassured passengers in a statement that the change is in name only.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile we recognize that the required name change may be received in different ways by our passengers, we\u2019re grateful for your continued support through this transition period,\u201d it said. \u201cWe remain committed to serving all passengers and ensuring a positive travel experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The airport\u2019s three-letter identification code will switch to DJT \u2014 the president\u2019s initials \u2014 on Aug. 18.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Federal Aviation Administration announced it has already adopted the code change and directed \u201cpilots, air traffic controllers, and aviation stakeholders\u201d to \u201cuse DJT for flight planning and operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump Force One, a plane privately owned by The Trump Organization, was the first aircraft to land at the newly named airport.<\/p>\n<p>Eric Trump, the president\u2019s son and the head of the organization, was on the plane.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no person who has done more for Florida and our country, and no one more deserving of this incredible honor,\u201d he wrote on social media. \u201cAs a son, and someone who flies out of this airport nearly every day, I will forever be proud to see the initials \u2019DJT\u2019 on my boarding pass.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/homebuyerrelocation.com\/?p=3816\">Iran digs outs from U.S. strikes, sprays missiles across Gulf region as the peace process teeters<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Eric Trump was joined by his brother Donald Trump Jr. and Rep. Byron Donalds, a Florida Republican running with the president\u2019s endorsement to succeed Mr. DeSantis as governor.<\/p>\n<p>The president is a legal resident of Palm Beach, Florida, with his permanent residence at the Mar-a-Lago estate.<\/p>\n<p>In compliance with a state law, a four-mile section of road connecting Mar-a-Lago to the airport was renamed Donald J. Trump Boulevard in January.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Lois Frankel, a Democrat whose district includes Palm Beach, expressed dissatisfaction with the name change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo one asked the people of Palm Beach County. This decision was made in Tallahassee, overriding the voices of the residents, businesses, and travelers who use it every day,\u201d Ms. Frankel wrote on social media. \u201cDonald Trump is not our KING!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The name change occurred on the same day as the renaming of Tennessee\u2019s Interstate 40 bridge to the President Donald J. Trump Bridge.<\/p>\n<p>Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, as well as Rep. Tim Burchett and Sen. Marsha Blackburn, both Tennessee Republicans, were present for the dedication in the Volunteer State.<\/p>\n<p>A federal appeals court recently rejected the Trump administration\u2019s attempt to appeal a decision blocking the renaming of Washington\u2019s Kennedy Center to \u201cThe Donald J.
