McCOOK, Neb. -- Commercial air service at the McCook airport is already seeing marked improvement with new provider Boutique Air. Airport officials confirmed this morning no flights were canceled this week.
Avoiding spring-time cancellations might be considered a minor achievement in some airport circles, however, it's a big step forward from the three flights cancelled just last week at the McCook airport under the previous airline.
Boutique Air took over commercial air service at McCook Ben Nelson Regional Airport June 1 and Public Works Director Kyle Potthoff indicated Thursday he was very pleased with the airline thus far. Potthoff said there were a lot of positive indicators, in addition to the airline prioritizing the restoration of confidence in the flight schedule.
Individuals wanting to book a flight or gather more information concerning flights into or out of McCook should visit the Boutique Air website at www.boutiqueair.com or call the reservation line at 1-855-268-8478. Tickets can be purchased at the McCook airport terminal, Monday thru Friday from 4 a.m. - 10:30 a.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 4 a.m. - 6:30 a.m.
There is not a local airport number to call for flight information at this time.
