MILWAUKEE, March 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Travelers flying Midwest
Airlines and Midwest Connect will soon benefit from added seasonal service and
flight frequency to key destinations.
On June 1, Milwaukee-based Midwest Airlines will launch nonstop seasonal
service between Milwaukee and San Francisco. The once-daily service, which
will continue through September 30, is in addition to existing year-round
service between Milwaukee and San Francisco via Kansas City. Flights will
feature the airline`s popular Saver Service, which offers affordable fares to
leisure destinations. Seating is arranged in a two-by-three configuration
with generous legroom for extra passenger comfort. Onboard service includes
complimentary soft drinks, packaged snacks and baked-onboard chocolate chip
cookies, with the airline`s buy-onboard Best Care Cuisine available for
purchase. DigEplayer portable inflight entertainment systems will also be
offered for rent.
Additionally, seven markets will benefit from the frequency additions:
-- Milwaukee-Baltimore, increasing to 3 roundtrip flights each weekday
-- Milwaukee-Denver, increasing to 4 roundtrip flights each weekday
-- Milwaukee-Kansas City, increasing to 7 roundtrip flights each weekday
-- Kansas City-Boston, increasing to 2 roundtrip flights daily
-- Kansas City-Los Angeles, increasing to 3 roundtrip flights each
weekday
-- Kansas City-New York La Guardia, increasing to 4 roundtrip flights
each weekday
-- Kansas City-San Diego, increasing to 2 roundtrip flights daily
The frequency additions are effective June 1, except for the
Milwaukee-Baltimore service which begins May 1. The increased frequency to
Denver, Los Angeles and San Diego will be provided seasonally to address
increased passenger demand during the summer months. In addition, service in
some markets will be retimed to better accommodate the added frequency.
