CHARTER
SERVICES / SHARE A RIDE
Share-A-Ride Information
Business Aviation Services is launching what it plans to promote
as the Share-A-Ride program to improve air-transportation links between South
Dakota's two largest cities and the state capital.
Under the Share-A-Ride program, companies and individuals will
pool together to share the cost of round-trip charter flights from Sioux Falls
to Rapid City, Pierre and possibly other destinations.
The program is designed to help fill a void in service created in October when
Mesaba Airlines, flying as Northwest Airlink, discontinued commercial flights
that connected Sioux Falls directly to Pierre and Rapid City.
Business Aviation has a fleet of twin-engine turboprops, that
seat from four to nine passengers and will be available for the charters.
Business Aviation will circulate the dates of requested flights in advance,
initially by e-mail and fax and eventually by postings on its Web site.
Companies or individuals will sign up for seats at least 24 hours in advance and
split the cost of the flight. If only three passengers go on a four-passenger
plane, they would split the cost of the extra seat.
Check out our Share-A-Ride Schedule on our webpage. We do not have a fixed
Schedule of flights. We encourge you to initiate the trip request.
This theory is like "Car Pooling" in the Sky.
