As St. Cloud’s Airport Sits Empty, Duluth’s is Thriving [AUDIO]
DULUTH - While the St. Cloud Regional Airport continues to struggle to find an air carrier, the airport in Duluth is flourishing.
Starting in June, United Airlines will offer an additional daily roundtrip flight between Duluth and Chicago.
Airport spokesman Brian Ryks says the flights are typically between 75 and 85 percent full.
Ryks says you can add that to the list of flights they offer to Minneapolis-St. Paul, Detroit, Las Vegas, Phoenix-Mesa and Orlando-Sanford.
The additional third flight to Chicago is currently scheduled to depart at 10:46 a.m., well positioned between the early morning 6 a.m. departure and the later afternoon 3:06 p.m. flight.
