Fort Dodge and the Twin Cities of Minneapolis-St. Paul will be linked by commercial flights once again beginning on Nov. 7, airport and airline officials announced Thursday.
With the addition of those Air Choice One flights, Fort Dodge Regional Airport will be connected to three major destinations - St. Louis, Missouri; Chicago, Illinois; and Minneapolis-St. Paul in Minnesota - for the first time.
Rhonda Chambers, the local airport's director of aviation, said having flights to three destinations is "an unprecedented event for air service from the Fort Dodge Regional Airport."
