Republic, one of the largest regional airlines in the U.S., is moving its training activities and corporate headquarters to Carmel as part of a $500 million, multi-phase, redevelopment project along the Meridian (U.S. 31) Corporate Corridor. In addition to the headquarters, the $200 million investment in phases 1 and 2 will include a high-tech training facility for pilots, technicians, flight attendants, and other positions within the airline. This project will also expand the existing adjacent hotel and include a new parking garage wrapped with commercial amenities on the first floor and multifamily living above.

This project will include a 105,000 square-foot training facility with 20 classrooms, 94 workstations, two cabin trainers, and eight flight simulators, and will bring 1,900 jobs with Republic alone. The hotel adjacent to the training center will be expanded to 274 rooms and used exclusively as accommodations for trainees, visiting instructors, business partners, and colleagues traveling to the aviation campus.

Construction commenced in fall 2021 and phase 1 is expected to be complete in early 2023.
