Pricing Data

Huntsville International Airport advertising rates & cost

HSV advertising is quoted per placement rather than from a fixed public rate card. Cost is driven by five factors:

Format, digital screens and spectaculars vs. dioramas vs. static displays.
Placement, baggage claim, security, and concourse zones differ by traffic and dwell time.
Campaign duration, longer flights can lower effective cost.
Season, demand shifts with travel peaks.
Production, printing, fabrication, and installation for your chosen format.

Indicative four-week ranges

For a regional airport of HSV's size, planning guidance only, not official HSV pricing. For broader context, see how airport ad costs compare to standard billboards.

Diorama $1,500 – $6,000
