FYI to you Texas folks that may want to travel to support your teams at UNA games! They won’t be started before ACU travels there for football but they will be for the TSU game.

NEW FLIGHTS

Here is a look at the flight schedule for Contour Airlines announced service to Dallas/Fort Worth from the Northwest Alabama Regional Airport in Muscle Shoals.

• MSL to DFW — 7:50 to 9:50 a.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturdays

• DFW to MSL — 5 to 6:50 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sundays

I feel like I flew into that airport once, but must have been straight to Huntsville.

I looked at flights. So far, it's mostly to Huntsville. It didn't really seem to matter much from Abilene to Huntsville or DFW to Huntsville. Both were over $650 round trip.

You’ll need to book through Contour Air online or via their app. MSL (Muscle Shoals) is how it’s listed.

Yeah, the one in Muscle Shoals is tiny. You would remember it. Although, back in the day it had several airlines but has been down to one for well over a decade if not longer.

Contour has actually added a twice weekly seasonal flight to/from Pensacola out of there during the summer and I was so thankful to fly direct to visit family. The flight is listed as 1:25 long but we were always in the air less than an hour when the visit by car is 6 or more. The plane is a mid size that seats 30.

I mentioned this new flight on the UNA message board also in case any UNA fans want to venture out there to support the Lions especially during the basketball tournament.
