Passenger flights could be coming back to Dauphin.
A company in Swan River is seriously exploring making a stopover in Dauphin during its regular flights to Winnipeg. The service would go both ways with flights to Winnipeg and Swan River.
Sharla Griffiths says the company is working with the Regional Airport Authority along with their primary funding agencies like the RM and the City to see if this is something that can work.
“The company has asked for some concessions to be made in terms of forgiveness of fees for a set period of time. So we are working on quantifying those fees to see exactly what that is and to see if that will work with our budget in 2019 and going forward.”
Griffiths says it’s beyond the preliminary stage, but details are not yet available to the public.
The company is anticipating this to happen earlier in 2019 than later.
