Jet service between SLC and St. George

SkyWest Airlines will replace turboprop flights with first-ever jet service between Salt Lake City and its St. George hometown in January, shortening flight times by 15 to 18 minutes to just one hour. The start of the new service is effective Jan. 13. It coincides with the opening of the new St. George municipal airport on the same day. SkyWest’s service also marks a new era in Utah air travel. It will be the first commercial jet route between two Utah cities. Salt Lake Tribune
