Anthony Dudas joins the Lincoln community as Executive Director of the Lincoln Airport Authority. With nearly two decades in the aviation industry, he built his career around strengthening airport operations, expanding air service, and delivering infrastructure that supports growing, economically vibrant communities.
Most recently, Anthony served as Airport Director at Williston Basin International Airport (XWA), where he led the development, construction, and successful transition to North Dakota’s newest commercial airport. In that role, he oversaw all operational, regulatory, and strategic initiatives, working closely with local, state, and federal partners to expand air service, deliver major capital projects, and grow non-aeronautical revenue opportunities.
Anthony believes strongly in being present and engaged in the community, whether through partnerships with local organizations, participation in community events, or supporting initiatives that strengthen both the aviation industry and the regions we serve.
Anthony looks forward to bringing a collaborative leadership approach and a strategic, forward-looking mindset to Lincoln as we continue enhancing air service, advancing airport and industrial park development, and reinforcing the airport’s role as a key driver of regional economic growth.
