Key Facts

• Palm Beach International Airport is now named President Donald J Trump International Airport.
• The name change is less than five miles from President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
• The Palm Beach county commission approved the deal with a bipartisan vote.
• The agreement gives Trump’s company, DTTM Operations LLC, exclusive control over the airport’s branding and merchandise rights.
• Trump cannot receive direct payment from goods sold at the airport but can earn profits from merchandise sold elsewhere, including online.
• Trump has final approval on how his name and image are used at the airport.
• Trademark experts note that this arrangement is unusual because the Trump family keeps non-exclusive rights to use the trademarks, allowing broader use beyond the airport.
• The deal may allow the Trump organization to influence which vendors sell products bearing the airport’s name and direct business in ways that could benefit the family.
