Cape Air could drop some flights on March 26<\/p>\n
Freedom Air will resume daily flights to Rota and will go back to using a 30-seater aircraft next week, while Star Marianas Air Inc. plans to fly to Rota as early as end-March, airline officials and senators separately said yesterday. <\/p>\n
Dennis Cruz, Freedom Air-CNMI station manager, confirmed yesterday that Freedom Air will resume daily flights to Rota as early as next week and will resume the use of 30-seater aircraft that will accommodate more passengers to and from Rota. <\/p>\n
Yes I can confirm we will be back to normal daily flights, and we will start using again the 30-seater aircraft, Cruz told Saipan Tribune. <\/p>\n
Since November, Freedom Air has been using a seven-seater aircraft to give way to regular maintenance of the 30-seater aircraft. Since then, it has also stopped flying to Rota on Mondays and Fridays. <\/p>\n
Sen. Juan M. Ayuyu (Ind-Rota) and Senate President Paul Manglona (Ind-Rota) separately said they welcome Freedom Air's decision to resume normal operations. <\/p>\n
Ayuyu and Manglona also said the owner of Rota Resort, Hee Cho, has been working with Star Marianas Air Inc. so that the airline will be able to provide flights to and from Rota as early as the last week of March. <\/p>\n
Ayuyu said Star Marianas Air is looking at using two nine-seater aircraft for the Rota flights. <\/p>\n
An official from Star Marianas on Tinian said yesterday they need to get clearance from the management before speaking directly to the media. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
