Sonoma County to Phoenix as Airport Adds American Airlines Flights
Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) announced earlier this week that American Airlines will offer nonstop daily service to Phoenix-Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) starting February 16, 2017. Flights will be operated by American Airlines partner SkyWest on its Bombardier CRJ-700, a 70-seat jet aircraft.
Less than two hours each way, the short flights will initially arrive into Sonoma County at 3:42 pm and depart daily at 4:12 pm. The flights present an opportunity for easy, convenient connectivity to eastbound destinations including: Albuquerque, Dallas, Newark, Palm Springs, Colorado, and Salt Lake City from PHX.
"We're very excited about this announcement," said Chamber President Jonathan Coe. "As a member of the Airport's Airline Attraction Committee, it's great to see our work pay off. Having our first eastbound hub connection is a big step and helps us make a better case for another connection through Denver."
