The airport is a state of the art transportation hub which links Liverpool with cities in Britain as well as Europe. In July 2001 Yoko Ono visited the airport to announce the renaming from Liverpool Airport to Liverpool John Lennon Airport. The Airport became the first in the UK to be named after an individual. The logo for the airport included the famous self portrait drawing by John Lennon and the strapline "above us only sky", taken from the lyrics of Lennon's "Imagine", one of the most popular songs of all time. Yoko Ono returned to the airport in 2002 to unveil a 7ft bronze statue of John Lennon. The imposing statue is sited on the main passenger walkway overlooking the check-in hall and is clearly visible to all Airport users.
