AMERICAN EAGLE EXPANDS LOCAL SERVICE
American Eagle, the regional affiliate of American Airlines, is now providing nonstop jet service between Okaloosa Regional Airport and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.
The service, which began July 2nd, will operate four daily round-trip flights between the two cities using 50-seat Embraer jets.
In addition, AmericanConnection, also a regional affiliate of American Airlines, began nonstop jet service between Lambert-St. Louis International Airport and Okaloosa Regional Airport on July 2nd. The new service offers a daily flight using a 44-seat Embraer ERJ-140 jet.
“We are very excited about our partnership with American Eagle and extremely pleased to have them returning to our market. We are looking forward to the excellent service they will provide to our community and feel certain the addition of these new flights will be a tremendous boost to our area. In the past, passengers have had to make connecting flights in either Atlanta or Memphis, causing longer flight times and many times lengthy layovers. Nonstop jet service to and from Dallas and St. Louis will be a lot more convenient and should attract even more people to utilize our new facility,” says Okaloosa County Commission Chairman Bill Roberts.
Local dignitaries will be on hand for a ribbon-cutting ceremony commemorating the American Eagle Inaugural Jet Service
