Missoula, Bozeman Plan Joint Venture – Cities look to American Airlines for service to Dallas

Business leaders from across the city gathered Tuesday to discuss Missoula air travel and a new but brief opportunity that could land nonstop service to Dallas-Fort Worth on American Airlines.

Missoula International Airport Director Chris Jensen said the city will apply for a U.S. Department of Transportation grant next week, and business leaders will seek to raise roughly $100,000 from community donors as part of a larger revenue guarantee to the airline.
