Three airlines are interested in flying out of Eau Claire’s airport.
Managers at the Chippewa Valley Airport yesterday said Sun Country Airlines, Southern Airways Express, and Boutique Air have all applied to take over for SkyWest when it stops service. All three are promising flights to Minneapolis, Sun Country is proposing seasonal flights to Orlando, Ft Myers and Las Vegas, and Southern is promising flights to Chicago.
Airport managers will make a recommendation on Friday, and federal officials will make a final selection after that.
