Flights cut at Eisenhower National Airport as coronavirus pandemic continues

Wichita’s Eisenhower National Airport says that due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, airlines are cutting the number of flights at the airport.

As of April, the number of flights has decreased by 28% as compared to March, a reduction of 298 flights.  The airport says the following flights have been canceled or reduced, but says it is a fluid situation and could change at a moment’s notice:

Effective April 7, American will operate 4-5 daily flights to DFW, depending on the day, instead of 7, and will operate 2 daily flights to Chicago, instead of 3.

Effective April 2, Delta will operate 2 daily flights to Atlanta, instead of 3, and will operate 1 daily flight to Minneapolis, instead of 3.

Effective April 14 – May 3, Southwest will reduce the St. Louis service to one daily flight on Sunday – Friday, with no Saturday service. The one departure will leave ICT at 5:40 pm. Southwest will not operate the Phoenix route on Saturday, but Las Vegas remains in the schedule. Beginning May 4 – June 5, Southwest is suspending both the Las Vegas and Phoenix nonstop routes and will add a third St. Louis flight.

United will operate a reduced schedule to Denver, Houston and Chicago and will adjust its schedule as needed.

Frontier is suspending service to Denver in April and May.

Allegiant has canceled some flights to Phoenix-Mesa, Las Vegas, and Destin the first week in April and continues to evaluate and adjust its schedule.

The airport says airfare prices are being slashed and airlines are waiving change and cancellation fees.
