Jackson Hole is a non-stop flight away! Yes, this is becoming the common theme when people talk about air travel to Jackson Hole.
Getting here will be easier than ever this winter with 12 non-stop flight routes. The formation 11 years ago of the Jackson Hole Air Improvement Resources Board, or as it is better known Jackson Hole AIR or JH AIR, has opened up flight routes across the country.
For the 2013-14 ski season we will have non-stop flights from 12 different airports including new winter flights from JFK, Seattle and Houston. All major airlines–United, Delta, American and Frontier (United Express and Skywest also support Jackson flights for United and Delta) are serving Jackson Hole offering numerous options.
JH AIR works because of strong support from the Jackson Hole business community led by Jackson Hole Mountain Resort along with Grand Targhee and Snow King. The additional support of businesses and especially our Platinum Sponsors who contribute a minimum of $25,000 annually has allowed us to provide revenue guarantees to the airlines that has greatly improved our air service.
Jackson Hole Sotheby’s International Realty is a Platinum Sponsor because we know how important having good flight schedules is and we are committed to helping guests and visitors now and in the future.
The strong relationship between JH AIR and our airline partners has resulted in joint planning and collaboration leading to our additional non-stop flights. This on-going effort has produced more airline seats in and out of Jackson Hole, with an 8% increase this winter compared to last year. That combined with having non-stop flights from 12 airports makes connections easier than ever and greatly simplifies travel for all domestic as well as our international visitors.
Jackson Hole can clearly say it has the best air service of any resort in the west. That combined with Jackson Hole Mountain Resort being named #1 in North America will hopefully make us the destination of choice for vacations and everyone who is even thinking about owning a home or condo in the mountains.
