Boutique Air to start Pendleton-Portland flights

Published December 7, 2016 11:05 am

PENDLETON, Ore. (AP) — Boutique Air announced plans to offer daily flights between Pendleton and Portland, restoring commercial air service to the city in Eastern Oregon.

The East Oregonian newspaper reports (https://is.gd/W37zvJ ) that Boutique will offer three daily round-trips starting Dec. 19.

Pendleton’s former provider of air service — SeaPort Airlines — declared bankruptcy early this year and ceased operations in September.

Boutique will use Pilatus PC-12 planes, which the company says will offer a faster and quieter ride than SeaPort’s fleet of Cessna Caravans.
