United will offer twice-daily nonstop service between Chicago and Duluth; Chicago and Asheville; Denver and Midland/Odessa; and Los Angeles and El Paso, Texas.

The Chicago-Asheville, Chicago-Duluth, Denver-Midland/Odessa and Denver-Louisville services will be the only nonstop flights in those markets.

All of the flights will be operated by United Express carrier SkyWest Airlines, using 50-seat CRJ-200 regional jets.

Service between Duluth and Chicago will offer travelers throughout eastern Minnesota more choice to dozens of cities throughout the United States, Europe, Asia, South America, Mexico and the Caribbean.

United offers more nonstop service to and from the Windy City than any other airline.

“Right now we are making a multi-million dollar investment in a new airport terminal in Duluth, because air service is vital to our regional economy,” says Minnesota Congressman Jim Oberstar, chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. “United’s investment in Duluth is adding momentum to that effort, and these additional flights will give travelers more ways to come to the Twin Ports for business and tourism.”
