Miami International Airport is celebrating it 90th birthday.
To honor the 90th anniversary of Miami International, the airport opened an art exhibit titled MIA: A Hub for History, featuring airport memorabilia from the last nine decades.
Developed in partnership with the History Miami Museum and the Wolfson Archives, the exhibit features vintage photographs, posters, uniforms and videos of celebrity MIA arrivals from the airport’s first flight on 15 September 1928 up to the present.
Here are some tweets from the day.
