Commercial air service to start again in Tupelo
TUPELO, Miss. (AP) – The final pieces are coming together for commercial air service to start again in Tupelo, five months after the last carrier left.
Corporate Flight Management, based in Smyrna, Tennessee, is set to begin its Tupelo-Nashville connection late next month.
CEO Matt Chaifetz tells the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal ticket sales will begin in late February.
Chaifetz says a name has been selected for the airline – it won’t be Corporate Flight Management – but said it will be revealed when the company officially rolls out its new website.
A schedule also is being finalized, with five flights daily on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday; four flights on Tuesday; three flights on Saturday and four flights on Sunday.
