Airlines and destinations

Historical airline service

Following the cessation of service by Hughes Airwest, SkyWest Airlines, operating as an independent commuter air carrier, was providing non-stop service with Piper Navajo aircraft to Las Vegas and Phoenix.^[13] Scenic Airlines also flew nonstop service to Las Vegas on a seasonal basis during the late 1970s.^[14] By June 1, 1986, SkyWest was operating all service into Page as Western Express via a code sharing agreement with Western Airlines flying 19-passenger Fairchild Swearingen Metroliner propjets direct to Phoenix via a stop in Flagstaff and also non-stop to St. George, Utah.^[15] Following the acquisition of Western by Delta Air Lines on April 1, 1987, SkyWest began serving Page as a Delta Connection air carrier via a code sharing agreement with Delta with Fairchild Swearingen Metroliner propjets flying the same routes previously operated as Western Express.^[16] By 1995, SkyWest operating as the Delta Connection was operating three roundtrip non-stop flights a day with Metroliner aircraft between Page and Phoenix.^[17] In 1996 Great Lakes Airlines began serving the Page-Phoenix route with 19-seat Beechcraft 1900's. The following year Scenic Airlines began serving Page once again and was flying the Page-Phoenix route with Cessna and Beechcraft 1900 aircraft. In 1998, Scenic was serving Page via a code sharing agreement with Delta Air Lines. In 1999 Sunrise Airlines took over the service flying three roundtrip non-stops a day between Page and Phoenix as an independent commuter air carrier with Piper Navajo aircraft. Great Lakes returned to Page in 2001, first operating flights to Phoenix as United Express but then reverted to the independent Great Lakes banner the following year. Since then additional flights were operated at times to Denver, Las Vegas, and Farmington, NM.^[18]
