Palm Beach International Airport in the United States' Florida has officially been renamed after President Donald Trump.
Now known as President Donald J. Trump International Airport, it is the latest addition to numerous American establishments and services taking after his identity.
Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed the legislation passing the retitling in March.
The airport said the name change cost 5.5 million US dollars.
And, the Federal Aviation Administration three-letter identifier code was changed from PBI to DJT.
But passengers will still need to use PBI to book flights until August 18, till which the airport name on baggage tags, tickets, and airline registrations will also remain unchanged.
Passenger KEEGAN COLLET: "I feel like he's just trying to put his name out there. I mean, I get what he's doing. Like he is our president. I mean, even if I don't like our president, I'm still going to support him. Because it's our president. At the end of the day, I mean, it's an airport. Why are we randomly changing the name of the airport?"
The Trump family regularly uses the Palm Beach airport when they visit Trump's Mar-a-Lago home in nearby Palm Beach.
A stretch of road from the airport to Trump's estate was renamed Donald J. Trump Boulevard earlier this year.
In an interview with "Fox & Friends", Eric Trump, the President's son, said that "there was no way in hell" he would be letting the United Parcel Service make its mark at the airport first.
He added that there's nobody more synonymous with Palm Beach than Donald Trump in all of Florida.
