Travelers arriving in Music City will soon be welcomed through Trump International Airport.
On Friday, Republican Tennessee state Rep. Todd Warner introduced House Bill 217, which would change the name Nashville International Airport to honor Trump.
The bill would require the Metropolitan Airport Authority to take steps to execute the name change.
Those actions would include installing new signs, changing trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), revising all existing contracts and legal documents to reflect the new name, and updating references with local, state and federal agencies.

During the transition period, the bill provides that the airport can operate businesses using its current name with the designation of “doing business as Trump International Airport” or “d/b/a Trump International Airport.”
If passed, the bill would take effect on January 1, 2026.
This is not the first time that a legislator has pushed to change the name of a airport after Trump.

In April 2024, a group of House Republicans also pushed to rename Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia after Trump.
Rep. Guy Reschenthaler, R-Pa., deputy chairman of the House GOP, introduced the bill, along with six cosponsors.
“In my lifetime, our nation has never been greater than under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump,” Reschenthaler previously told Fox News Digital. “As millions of domestic and international travelers fly through the airport, there is no better symbol of freedom, prosperity and strength than hearing ‘Welcome to Trump International Airport’ when they land on American soil.”
If approved, it would be the second D.C.-area airport named after a Republican commander-in-chief after ronald reagan Washington National Airport in Arlington, Virginia.

Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., also echoed Moore, saying, “I see no more appropriate recognition than naming both airports in our nation’s capital after America’s two greatest presidents: DCA in honor of President Reagan and Dulles in honor of President Trump.”
