North Dakota Sees Growth

North Dakotan airports have seen strong growth this year - boardings in April were up 14% year-over-year, according to the Associated Press. Apparently a booming oil industry has helped out a great deal. The numbers for the rest of the year should continue to look good, as airlines have been expanding service in the state. Later this week United will begin nonstop flying from Minot to its hub in Denver. Delta will also boost flying to Salt Lake City from Minot, Fargo, and Bismarck later this week.
