MASSENA â Boutique Air flights from Massena International Airport to Baltimore-Washington International Airport are scheduled to begin on Sunday, replacing one of the flights to Boston Logan International Airport.
âIt will be the first flight to Boston, second flight to Baltimore and third to Boston,â Massena Deputy Supervisor Samuel D. Carbone Jr. told the Massena Town Council on Monday.
He had told board members in October that Boutique Air was weighing the possibility of replacing one of its Boston flights with daily round-trip flights to Baltimore.
Boutique Air initially offered flights to Albany International Airport twice a day and Baltimore-Washington International Airport once a day. But those were scrapped in June 2018 in favor of 21 non-stop round trips each week to Boston Logan International Airport using the airlineâs Pilatus PC-12 aircraft.
