Sun County Airlines Announces New Service at RNO

Sun Country Airlines became the 10th airline serving Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO) June 27, as they announced new non-stop service between Reno and Portland, Ore. this November.

“We haven’t seen 10 airlines serve Reno in more than a decade, and adding Sun Country to Portland is an exciting announcement for our entire region,” says Reno-Tahoe Airport Authority President and CEO Marily Mora. “We’re very fortunate to be able to offer the opportunity for so many airlines to successfully operate here.

The new service will begin on Nov. 16, just in time for the busy holiday season, departing Fridays and Mondays from Portland at 3:20 p.m. and arriving Reno at 4:40 p.m. The flight will then depart Reno at 5:40 p.m., arriving in Portland at 7:05 p.m. It’s anticipated the airline will fly a Boeing 737-800 aircraft. Introductory fares for the new flight start as low as $59.
