Horizon Air to offer service to Sonoma
Horizon Air's new service puts Southern Nevadans just two hours away from the beauty and romance of the Sonoma wine country. Horizon will begin new, daily nonstop flights between Las Vegas and Santa Rosa, Calif., starting April 24.
"Since bringing air service back to Sonoma County, we've been flooded with requests for flights to Las Vegas," said Dan Russo, Horizon's director of marketing and communications.
"So we're especially pleased to now be in a position to make it a reality. Las Vegas will be our fourth destination to be served nonstop from Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport," he added.
Horizon Air began serving Sonoma County on March 20, 2007, with flights to Los Angeles and Seattle. On Oct. 28, the airline added a daily nonstop flight to Portland.
These flights, as well as the new Las Vegas flight, are operated with the airline's quiet and comfortable 76-seat Q400 aircraft.
"I am thrilled to see our partnership with Horizon expand to new service from Sonoma County to Las Vegas," said Paul Kelley, Sonoma County supervisor. "Air service continues to be a crucial part of our economic vitality in Sonoma County, for business and tourism."
The new flight will take two hours and five minutes each way and will depart daily from Las Vegas at 10:15 p.m. The return flight will depart from Santa Rosa at 7:35 p.m.
Tickets for the new Las Vegas-Santa Rosa service are available now and currently start as low as $69 one-way for travel Monday through Thursday and on Saturday, and as low as $89 one way for travel on Fridays and Sundays when purchased online at www.horizonair.com 14 days or more ahead of time.
A ticket purchased at a Horizon or Alaska Airlines airport location or through one of their reservation call centers will cost $10 more per person.
