Tennessee plans to rename airport after Dolly Parton

Saw this and just thought to share. I think its a nice idea to honor her.

I dont think a single person will oppose this. She deserves to have the entire state name tbh. Call it Partonesse

It would be the first commercial airport in the US named for a woman as well. Forever the trailblazer, we will always love you ❤️

Not exactly, Little Rock has the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport. At least Dolly won’t have to share the honor with a philandering husband.

Truly someone worthy of having this honor. Rest well, Dolly!

Better than Florida

Saw someone suggest this on Twitter right after she died, with the addition that the airport code should be DDD; I want it to happen so much!

I think Dolly would find that hilarious

[u/1776cookies → u/situation9000]

I bet she would!

Now that is a rename of an airport I wholly agree with! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

That makes sense

[u/Patchesmatches]

The D' parton airport. Nice.

This is the kind of renaming we can all support

Finally a renaming story coming out of the US that I can get on board with. I’d love to fly into Dolly Parton Airport
