Why North Central State Airport serves northern Rhode Island
Smithfield sits in the northern reaches of the Providence metro, and North Central State Airport provides private aviation access for a corridor that has historically been underserved. The cost of a private jet from North Central State Airport is competitive, and the airport's location puts it closer to Woonsocket, Cumberland, Lincoln, and the Massachusetts border communities of Attleboro and Franklin than either T.F. Green (PVD) to the south or any Boston-area airport to the north. Bryant University's campus is 5 minutes from the airport, Fidelity Investments operates a major facility in Smithfield, and the northern Rhode Island manufacturing and healthcare corridor generates executive travel that previously required a 20–30 minute drive to PVD.
