Easy question to answer... despite being the capitol of Ohio, Columbus is not a high volume travel city for business O&D (origin/destination travel); nor is it the hub for any airline ort ideally located to become one. RJ
2 :
No airline has a hub there and airlines do not see a lot of demand from the people living there so that is why there are not as many direct flights.

Actually, Columbus has a fairly good set of nonstop destinations. You can fly to every major hub in the U.S. -- JFK, LGA, EWR, LAX, Chicago O'Hare and Midway, Atlanta, DFW, and dozens of others. While there are no international destinations other than Toronto and Cancun, you have to realize that Columbus is not NYC -- we aren't going to get extensive international flights any time soon. The only cities in the U.S. that we are really lacking are Salt Lake City (which we lost a few years ago), the San Francisco bay area, and Seattle. I think those flights will come in the next five to ten years or so. Honestly though, it could be much worse. Ask Toledo.
