Beginning today, Wichita Mid-Continent travelers headed to Los Angeles will get there earlier, thanks to United Express. United’s departure will now leave Wichita at 7:17 AM and arrive at LAX at 8:30 AM.
“The new schedule is expected to be more attractive, especially to business travelers,” Valerie Wise, Air Service & Business Development Manager, said.
The returning flight leaves at 6:36 PM and arrives in Wichita at 11:12 PM. United Express provides non-stop service on a 66-seat regional jet, equipped with economy-plus seating.
From LAX, travelers will have convenient connections to destinations such as Maui, Cancun, Narita, and Hong Kong.
Today also marks the last day that ExpressJet Delta Connection will provide nonstop service to LAX. Delta initiated the service in July 2007.
“When Delta opened up the LA market with nonstop service from Wichita, the flights were full,” Wise said. “But after United began its nonstop service in September, coupled with the slower travel season, passenger the loads were not enough to sustain the service. We hope travelers will support the nonstop service on United, so we can keep this important nonstop destination.”
