SUN 2019 SUMMER/FALL FLIGHTS 
It's been a busy summer season, thanks in part to improved air service access to/from SUN for our visitors and our local residents. Remember if you are flying SUN, make sure you get to the airport with plenty of time to make your flight - 2 hours in advance of scheduled departure time is recommended, and is especially critical for the morning flights since there are many all schedule close together.
 
SUMMER/FALL FLIGHTS:
  • Delta SLC flights: 3x daily summer/fall/winter
  • United DEN, SFO, LAX: daily through - Sept 2
  • Alaska SEA: daily through Sept 8; 3x week (Thurs/Friday/Sunday) Sept 12 - mid Dec
 
Remember, always CHECK SUN FARES FIRST!   Summer Flight Schedule PDF    
 

   

AIR SERVICE IS IMPORTANT FOR BUSINESS & OUR ECONOMY
 
 "Power Engineers, a global engineering firm and one of the Wood River Valley's largest employers, is dependent on quality, flexible air service into the valley, as we do the majority of our work outside the State of Idaho. Our community has been fortunate to have excellent air service over the years  but times change and maintaining that quality service is a challenge. Today we have the FSVA group that is focused on maintaining and developing our air service. With the ongoing industry changes, we're lucky to have such a focused group and they're doing a good job providing our community with important air service access.  
 
For example, last year, FSVA was able to secure a third daily flight to Salt Lake City, which is critical to Power, as it provides increased flexibility to schedule our employee project trips that take us all over the nation and around the globe. The nonstop flights from major cities that FSVA has secured over the past few years have also had a positive impact on our area's economy. The bottom line is that we're fortunate to have FSVA working to improve air service for our community, which affects us all."
 
Jack Hand, Chairman of the Board, Power Engineers 


SUN AIRPORT HAS NEW ENTRANCE SIGN
The SUN airport had a new entrance sign installed a few weeks ago to direct travelers and it looks great! Kudos to the airport, City of Hailey and Hawley Graphics, who made this happen. 
 

CONGRATS TO SKYWEST SUN STATION STAFF TEAM!
In April the SkyWest team at SUN won United's Caring Challenge Award. This award was specifically for most improved station over the previous year. And in May the SkyWest team was Delta's top Regional Line Station, achieving a 4.40 out of 5.0.

Way to go SkyWest SUN station team!  Thank you for your hard work and commitment to SUN and our passengers.
