Ohio is one of America’s leading manufacturers and ranks third in manufacturing employment nationwide. But prior to building up the economy, Ohio served as a battleground in some pivotal wars.

Indians fought for Ohio land in 1794 during the battle of Fallen Timbers – today the site is a national historic monument. Travellers booking flights to Ohio might have read about the War of 1812. It only lasted one year, but Commodore Oliver H. Perry defeated the British in today’s Ohio in the Battle of Lake Erie. Today, Ohio’s cities produce some of the nation’s most essential products. Akron produces rubber; Cleveland is the heart of auto assembly and auto parts; Dayton produces office machines, heating and cooling equipment; and Toledo is known for glass and auto parts. Chances are your flight to Ohio is thanks to Cincinnati, where jet engines are manufactured.

While Ohio maintains a pivotal role in manufacturing and industrial production, tourism is also a key factor in Ohio’s economy. Who can pass up a trip to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or the Pro Football Hall of Fame? History buffs can visit the homes of US Presidents Ulysses S. Grant, William Howard Taft, Rutherford Hayes, Warren Harding and James Garfield. Thanks to the millions of visitors booking Ohio flights and hotel accommodations every year, the state sees more than $30 (£15) billion a year.

Getting around Ohio

The Akron-Canton and Port Columbus airports have flights to Ohio destinations. Amtrak train routes stop at Cincinnati, Cleveland, or Toledo, and there is bus service throughout the state.

Public transportation is a good option in the larger cities. Cincinnati’s Metro runs local commuter buses, Cleveland’s Regional Transit Authority (RTA) operates a bus and train system, and in Columbus the Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) runs local buses. Cincinnati is also a great city for walking.

Driving is recommended for the rest of the state, particularly if you want to explore the Amish country or Ohio’s many scenic byways.

Sections of the Ohio to Erie Trail are open. This trail is open to bikes, horses, skates, snowshoes, and cross-country skis, but no automobiles. Scheduled for completion in 2010, the trail will be approximately 325 miles and run from Cincinnati to Lake Erie.
