Durango La Plata County Airport will be offering non-stop flights to a new city throughout the summer.

The airport announced that United Airlines will be offering a seasonal direct flight to Houston, TX. The non-stop flight will operate Saturdays and Sundays between June 24th and September 3rd.

Tony Vicari is the aviation director for the airport and says that there is strong demand between the four corners region and south Texas. According to Vicari, if occupancy of the 76 passenger aircraft is between 75-80 percent, United may consider making the direct flight full-time. Vicari says that United Airlines will continue to offer its daily flights between Durango and Denver.
