Subsidized Route to Enhance Pennsylvania-DC Mobility

Surf Air Mobility has announced a subsidized commuter route from the Williamsport Municipal Airport to Washington Dulles International Airport.

The new route is expected to begin next May, with funding and support services provided by the Williamsport Airport Authority. Commuter traffic between the Pennsylvania region and the nation's political nerve trunk.

“Williamsport, Pennsylvania is at the forefront of a new era in regional mobility. Their forward-thinking approach helps to expand access to convenient air travel that connects their community with the larger commercial air service networks,” said Stan Little, CEO of Surf Air. “There are hundreds of underutilized yet incredibly convenient airports across the U.S. Our mission at Surf Air is clear: we’re finding innovative solutions to the lack of viable regional connectivity. We plan to continue exploring these types of partnerships with local, state, and federal agencies, with private institutions, and with international partners.”

“The Williamsport Municipal Airport Authority and I welcome this commitment on the part of our new airline partner, Southern Airways Express. We believe connecting to the Dulles hub and the access to multiple major carriers through Southern’s interline and distribution agreements will offer our community more travel flexibility than ever before. We look forward to a long relationship and thank Southern Airways Express for the confidence in our community,” said Richard C. Howell, Executive Director of Williamsport Municipal Airport Authority.
