So....what’s with the airport in St George? Anyone think within 10 to 15 years spirit or frontier might have flights (Salt Lake City: price)

What say you? Instead of driving 2 hours to Vegas.

Might be nice to have flights at least to big cities

I wish frontier would start some flights there. They are so affordable and go to smaller sized cities. Yeah I have done extensive research on what destinations go to and from STG. I think it's Denver, SLC, PHX, and LA. That is it. Good grief. Yes...vegas is a short drive but it would be nicer if there was a flight.

Even if frontier had flights like once or twice per week from major hubs(Chicago,Denver,LAX,)

It's the price.....you can connect from Denver on United and Delta, but price is over the top! cheaper to go from Vegas, and much, much faster arrival at destination!

Skywest's headquarters is in St. George, so there is a lot of influence as to what happens at the St. George and Cedar airports. Mesa had flights to LV for awhile from Cedar, which facilitated more connecting flight selection than the Delta-only flights Skywest feeds into, but there was a lot of (sometimes very vocal) resistance and so Skywest regained control and the LV flights stopped... it's now Salt Lake City/ Delta connections only again out of Cedar. We almost never use either airport and drive to LV instead... even with the cost of LV, the flights to where we actually want to go are much cheaper.

Wow. I really wish they would have kept the LV-CC flight in place. I certainly would have used it often. I really hope STG. expands their flight options in the near future. Hopeful.
