CNN 20: CNN Airport Network, Part of the CNN Family

Aired March 9, 2000 - 9:36 a.m. ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

JACK WOMACK, EXEC. VICE PRESIDENT, AIRPORT NETWORK: The Airport Network was a great experiment for us to get into airports to maybe be able to promote our products, but also to give the busy traveler something to do when they are sitting, waiting in the airport.

We are in 32 airports, about 1600 gates. So we are reaching most, if not all, of the traveling public because we are in all the major airports. And people really write and tell us: Boy, you really saved us when we were stranded in an airport for three or four hours. We had official information. So it's been a great thing for us.

We first put all kinds of specialized programing on it. And we found out viewers wanted to feel more at home when they are away from home. And one way to do that is giving them CNN products that they are used to: CNN/SPORTS ILLUSTRATED, CNNfn, Headline News.

It's different in the sense that we feature some of the best of all of the CNN News Group Networks. We'll some CNN Financial News on in the morning, and in the afternoon we will have CNN USA's air signal when a major breaking story occurs.

So whatever the hot story is of the day will be on that network, like you would see it on CNN. We are very pleased with the success of that network.
