Denver Air Provides Extra Flight To Help Hunters Who Missed Pierre Connection

PIERRE — Denver Air Connection continues to prove itself as a reliable, on-time part of Pierre’s Essential Air Service participation. Airport Commissioner Jamie Huizenga says the airline stepped up recently to make sure passengers got to the Capital City…

Huizenga says the hunters could have waited for another connecting flight to get to Pierre from Denver, but they happened to be near Denver Air upper management at the time…

Huizenga joked about Denver Air’s flawless on-time record to Pierre…

The 30-seat rescue jet was a Fairchild-Doriner 328. Denver Air parent company Key Lime Air has seven 328’s in their fleet, two of which are normally in storage. The airline has four Embraer E-R-J-145’s which are the normal planes that service Pierre and Watertown.
