United also announced yesterday that its United Express partner Air Wisconsin will launch daily regional jet service this fall between Washington Dulles and St. Louis Lambert International Airport, and between Dulles and Kansas City International Airport.
Beginning Oct. 4, 2003, these new United Express flights will facilitate convenient connections for travelers from St. Louis and Kansas City to the many U.S. domestic and international destinations served by United and United Express from Washington Dulles.
The new service will consist of three daily, round-trip flights from both St. Louis and Kansas City to Dulles using regional jets seating up to 50 customers.
The initial schedule will be as follows:
Origin Destination Departure Arrival
Dulles Kansas City 08:40 10:10
Dulles Kansas City 12:30 14:00
Dulles Kansas City 17:20 18:50
Kansas City Dulles 08:15 11:35
Kansas City Dulles 12:35 15:55
Kansas City Dulles 17:00 20:20
Dulles St. Louis 08:20 09:30
Dulles St. Louis 12:45 13:55
Dulles St. Louis 17:15 18:25
St. Louis Dulles 08:30 11:35
St. Louis Dulles 12:40 15:55
St. Louis Dulles 17:30 20:45
The new flights follow a memorandum of understanding reached in July with United and Air Wisconsin Airlines to operate select portions of the Company's United Express service. In addition to its existing fleet, the amended agreement provided Air Wisconsin the opportunity to place an additional 20 regional jets in the United Express program in Washington, Chicago and Denver.
