Flint Bishop is proud to announce it has named a new Chief of Public Safety who brings decades of exceptional Law Enforcement Experience to the airport. Flint Bishop Police Lieutenant Wayne McIntyre has been promoted to chief of public safety.

“We couldn’t have chosen a more dedicated and passionate Law Enforcement Official to lead our Airport into a new chapter of Public Safety, so we can continue to protect our passengers and Airport community,” said Nino Sapone, airport director.
