Cape Air Officially Launches New York Service

New Routes link Saranac Lake and Plattsburgh, New York to Boston's Logan Airport

HYANNIS, Mass. — Cape Air cut the ribbon today inaugurating their newest routes between Saranac Lake and Plattsburgh, New York and Boston's Logan International Airport. The new service actually began flying passengers in February and Cape Air President Dan Wolf says the route is already a proven winner." Folks here in the Adirondacks are really responding to the service and we are very happy with our first few months here," says Wolf. "With a flight time of less than an hour and some fares as low as $59, it is cheaper to fly than it is to drive. We are looking forward to a busy summer and fall season."

"Cape Air is our hometown airline," said Edward C. Freni, Director of Aviation for the Massachusetts Port Authority, which owns and operates Logan. "We are pleased Cape Air is connecting Boston Logan International Airport with upstate New York."

By September 2008 Cape Air will add an Albany hub with three new routes between the state capital and the communities of Watertown, Ogdensburg and Watertown. "Thanks to the tremendous support of state and local officials Cape Air is establishing a niche here in New York's North Country and we are proud to add this beautiful region to our route map."
