Pioneer Airways of Denver asks Sidney to endorse a commuter service linking Sidney with Ogallala North Platte McCook and Denver with daily flights. The plan awaits Nebraska Public Service Commission approval and requires support from North Platte McCook and other communities to proceed. The venture aims to supplement Frontier Airlines serving the region and would use a nine passenger Cessna Titan with similar fares to Frontier.
