PenAir Air Taxi Service between Dillingham and King Salmon to the outlying villages will not operate on Sundays during the month of March. Those dates are March 7, 14, 21 and 28.

Melissa Anderson, vice president of sales and marketing at PenAir, said in an e-mail that PenAir is doing a short-term study to determine if the over cost savings involved by not operating on Sundays would be a financial gain for the company while still providing service to those areas. She said it is not something PenAir is looking at doing in the immediate future but will analyze the monthlong study to determine if it may be worthwhile for the future.
