Morgantown may join three other West Virginia cities in endorsing a proposal to switch airlines. One that will give passengers more options and more destinations. Story by Katherine Jones
Morgantown City Council has voted to recommend to the federal Department of Transportation that Regions Air replace Air Midwest at Morgantown Municipal Airport. Air Midwest has been flying passengers to Pittsburgh where they could then make connecting flights.
Air Midwest announced in April that it would cancel service to the Morgantown Airport unless it received a federal subsidy.
Regions Air would fly passengers from Morgantown to Delta Airlines' hub in Cincinnati. They would provide a 34 passenger Saab aircraft that has laboratory facilities, more room for passengers and a flight attendant.
Council says the high cost of a flight from Morgantown to Pittsburgh forced many potential air travelers to drive to Pittsburgh instead. With a new hub passengers will able to fly to 140 cities around the world from Cincinnati ...compared to about 50 out of Pittsburgh.
