Direct (emphasize direct) to Boston (for Europe) and to Baltimore (for DC and also a Southwest hub) would be great.

As it is now, I always go to Saranac Lake for a Cape Air direct to Boston Logan..

Albany is ok if going there or to NYC via connecting Amtrak train. A plane to Buffalo is worthless.

I would very likely use the service for myself and for visitor academics - as well as family.

I would greatly prefer Baltimore and Boston a close second since they are both more hub/international airports from which there are excellent connection flights throughout the country and also to Europe.  This would greatly decrease the time from places around the country and around the world to Potsdam and with very little ground transportation time.

Colleagues,

 

We know many people travel in /out of Potsdam on different modes of transportation and when travelling by air, consider several different options.

 

The Town of Massena is currently reviewing two proposals by airlines to provide air service from Massena International Airport to regional air service hubs. 

 

The current supplier has three daily roundtrips to Albany with connecting service to Boston on nine-passenger Cessna aircraft.  The same carrier also offers flights to Albany with connections to Boston via the Ogdensburg Airport.   

 

The Town of Massena is also considering a provider (may be an alternative provider) with nine-passenger planes that has offered to fly two direct routes,  with the Town needing to choose two choices from among the list of Albany, Boston, Buffalo or Baltimore.  

 

The Town Council will be holding a public meeting on Nov. 30 at 5:30 p.m. in Room 30 on the second floor of the Massena Town Hall, 60 Main St..  If you would like to submit comments to me about the likelihood you would use the Massena Airport with these destinations, including naming the two direct destinations you would most likely choose to use, I will be collecting wider feedback from Clarkson and sending a summary to the Town Supervisor.   Your response to me by November 29 would be appreciated.  

 

Please let me know if you have further questions or comments.  Thanks. 

 

Kelly
