MetroAir Virtual Airlines News

Dear MetroAir Pilots,

We are excited to announce that starting immediately, the routes operated out of the Dallas/Fort Worth (KDFW) base will undergo a significant overhaul. This change is part of our continuous efforts to strengthen and streamline the MetroAir network.

Moving forward, KDFW routes will now include a variety of **one-way, roundtrip, and multi-leg flights.** This updated approach will allow us to better connect our destinations and enhance flexibility across the network, meeting both passenger and operational needs more effectively.

Please note that this is the first step in a broader initiative. Additional hubs and bases will be included in this overhaul as we roll out these improvements across the network in 2025.

Your feedback and expertise are invaluable, and we look forward to working together as we take MetroAir to new heights.

Thank you for your continued dedication. author: {‘name’: ‘Published By: Chris G’, ‘url’: ‘https://www.crew.metroairvirtual.com/profile/11’}
