School Group Tours
GPT offers tours of the terminal facility for groups of all ages. Children can learn the whole process of navigating through the terminal to board their flight and adults can view changes made since the terminal expansion and behind-the-scenes security measures. For more information and to arrange a tour, please contact Kristi Bennett at 228-863-5951 ext. 25.
GPT Blood Drive
GPT began holding blood drives in 2009 to support the American Red Cross and to help ease blood supply shortages. Blood drives are held on the bloodmobile at the south end of the terminal in the delivery parking area, and parking is complimentary while donating. Donors must register first inside the terminal by baggage claim.
For more information on the American Red Cross and future blood drives, please contact Liz Gaulke

GPT Gives Back
On July 19, 2006, Gulfport-Biloxi Regional Airport Authority partnered with W. D. Schock, Inc. to kick off implementation of its Part 150 Noise Compatibility Program. This program allows for the replacement of exterior windows and primary doors for homes within the established boundary areas (Residential Sound Insulation), a one time nominal fee payment to owner (Easement Acquisition) or the voluntary relocation of occupants (Acquistion and Relocation). Since this program began, 206 homeowners have received new doors, windows, HVAC and insulation and 195 others have participated in the Easement Acquisition program. For more information, contact Tom Grier, 228-575-3444.
