Frontier Airlines Announces Flights, Salisbury Unaffected

Don Rush

Frontier Airline announced that will offer commercial flights out of the Wilmington-New Castle Airport to Orlando beginning on May 14th.

WBOC reports that the airline will offer flights on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.

Frontier Airline left Delaware four years ago after only two years.

Meanwhile, Wicomico County Administrator Wayne Strasburg told the television station that this will not impact the Salisbury Regional Airport since it is located in northern Delaware within driving distance from Baltimore.

Bill Chambers, president of the Salisbury Area Chamber of Commerce, told the television station that he would like to see additional flights but does not believe there will be any in the near future.
