2nd Major Airline Carrier Coming to New Bern!


When you've come from a major city, as I did over ten years ago, you're accustomed to direct flights that take you just about anywhere! Although the smaller, quaint cities like New Bern have their charm, it's been an adjustment making travel arrangements.
The Craven County Regional Airport constructed a new and larger terminal building about 3 years ago. US Air has been the only major carrier since Midway left in the late 90's. There are several daily jet shuttles to Charlotte, NC, where passengers can then continue on to their final destinations. Last year, US Air started weekly jet flights directly to Philadelphia on Sundays.
Delta Airlines recently announced that they will be providing daily flights from New Bern to their hub in Atlanta, beginning in May 2007. That opens up much more accessibility to New Bernians, who are traveling south!
We're looking forward to having a choice!
