US AIRWAYS EXPRESS ANNOUNCES NEW NON-STOP
FLIGHTS TO PHILADELPHIA, PA
Lexington, KY - US Airways Express has announced new
service from Lexington, KY to its hub in Philadelphia, PA
beginning May 20, 2001.
Travelers from Lexington will be able to take
advantage of two daily non-stop flights from Lexington’s
Blue Grass Airport to Philadelphia International Airport.
These flights will provide Lexington with a new non-stop destination
and significantly enhance connections for our business customers
to the east coast and Europe. The new service, operated by
US Airways’ wholly owned subsidiary PSA Airlines, will
utilize 32-seat Dornier 328 airliners.
“With the introduction of the Lexington-Philadelphia
service, US Airways Express brings daily non-stop service
for Lexington travelers to each of US Airways’ hubs –
Philadelphia, Charlotte and Pittsburgh – where customers
can connect to more than 200 destinations worldwide”,
said Thomas M. Hanley, US Airways Express vice president.
Airport Executive Director, Michael Gobb added,
“This is the second new non-stop destination that Blue
Grass Airport has announced in the last six months. We appreciate
the business community’s support of the airport’s
marketing efforts as we continue to pursue new flights and
more competitive service for the region.”
