PenAir Officially Starts Flights From Dodge to Denver

Dodge City, KS (westernkansasnews.com) One flight landed from Denver and a short time later another took off back to the Mile High City.  Thursday Dodge City Airport celebrated the maiden voyage of PenAir.  After Great Lakes left as the carrier in Dodge, Airport Director Corey Keller wanted to make sure customers still had a way of getting to Denver.

Dodge City Manager Cherise Tieben believes for regional travelers adding PenAir keeps options open.

PenAir Director of Network Planning Harrison Badel says Dodge could be considered for additional service, but that is up to the people they serve now.

Passenger numbers are down in Dodge City because some felt the previous carrier was unreliable.  The hope is making this move to PenAir will restore their confidence.
