Fewer people are flying the friendly skies this year out of Minot's International Airport. Airport Manager Patrick Dame says passenger boardings are down about 13 thousand which will bring the total for the year to about 60 thousand passengers. Dame says the shortfall is likely because of the cancellation of Northwest flights in June and July, and because of higher ticket fares. He says another reason for the drop is what he calls leakage to other areas like Bismarck... (Patrick Dame, Minot International Airport Manager) And looking at previous numbers we could decipher from our regular 72,000 mark we were leaking about 30,000 passengers down to Bismarck which is typically our westbound passengers. Those are the things we're aiming to capture in the future here and we are trying to seek additional airline service whether it be through frontier or United Airlines or even Delta to Salt Lake City. Dame says they're still hoping that Minot is chosen by Frontier airlines as a new location to provide service. Minot was bypassed in the first round of new locations by Frontier and the second round is still in the works but has been delayed by the Federal Aviation Administration and their certification process. « Less
