Fifth Third flies to Dallas the week its Comerica merger integration picks up speed

Fifth Third landed at Addison Airport in Dallas at 1:11 p.m. local time on June 15, 2026, having flown 2 hours and 10 minutes from Cincinnati Municipal Airport Lunken Field. The bank’s Challenger 300, tail N167FT, touched down in North Texas on a Monday afternoon.

The trip comes the same week Fifth Third is deepening its presence in Dallas after its blockbuster merger with Comerica Bank. As covered by [Dallas Innovates](https://dallasinnovates.com/following-merger-with-comerica-bank-fifth-third-bank-makes-dallas-its-regional-headquarters/), the bank recently established its Texas regional headquarters at Preston Center, with a temporary base in a North Park branch. CEO Tim Spence told analysts on a Friday call that integration is moving “at an accelerated pace,” with systems conversion slated for Labor Day weekend (per [American Banker](https://www.americanbanker.com/news/fifth-third-ceo-on-comerica-integration-so-far-so-good)). Two mock conversions are planned before then.

The Dallas landing follows a busy week of Fifth Third travel: board meetings in New Jersey and Chicago, and a Morgan Stanley conference appearance by the CFO in New York on June 10 (per [Seeking Alpha](https://seekingalpha.com/article/4913730-fifth-third-bancorp-fitb-presents-at-morgan-stanley-us-financials-conference-2026-transcript)). Today’s flight suggests face-to-face work at the bank’s newest hub during a critical integration phase.
