PACU opens ATM at PTI Airport

Piedmont Advantage Credit Union (PACU) sees an opportunity to continue to serve a workforce rooted in aviation and consumers on-the-go as it did nearly 75 years when it was founded to support the financial needs of Piedmont Aviation’s and Piedmont Airlines’ employees and their families.

PACU held a ribbon-cutting in celebration of its recent installment of a stand-alone ATM at Piedmont Triad International (PTI) Airport in Greensboro. This ATM will provide convenience for a workforce of 815,000 individuals who are employed with companies on the airport campus and, on average, 130,000 monthly air-travel commuters to make safe and secure cash withdraws and account balance checks; and if they have PACU accounts, money transfers easily between accounts.

“We are thrilled to bring our ATM services to PTI,” said PACU’s President & CEO Dion Williams. “As ranked among the top five best small airports in the United States, PTI will not only give us valuable exposure as we continue to grow in Greensboro, but also help us to commemorate our humble beginnings in the aviation and airline industries, heading into 2024 with our 75^th anniversary.”

PACU opened a new Greensboro branch in 2021 at the Brassfield Shopping Center on Battleground Avenue. An ATM outside of the branch was added in 2022.
