PIERRE — Flights from Pierre to Denver continue as usual at Pierre Regional Airport however city officials continue to field questions about when a flight or flights to Minneapolis will begin. Airport Liaison to the Pierre City Commission Jamie Huizenga says an idea of what a Pierre-Minneapolis flight might look like could be coming…
The updated Essential Air Service agreement Denver Air Connection was awarded earlier this year left open distribution of 12 weekly flights between Pierre and Denver and Minneapolis. The original bid presented was a hybrid bid of eight Denver and four Minneapolis. It’s expected a Minneapolis option may not begin until late 2023.
