Salina -With the departure of Great Lakes Airlines flight #3021 from the Salina Regional Airport Wednesday morning at 7:45, Central Kansas residents again have access to scheduled air service.

“The Salina market looks very promising and we expect to see a quick increase in passenger boardings “stated Great Lakes president Chuck Howell in a media release.

Howell added, “Salina passengers will be pleased with the comfort and speed of our 30 seat Embraer Brasilia regional aircraft.”
