COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

Columbia Regional Airport will once again be announcing that more flights will occur at its location, according to a Wednesday press release from the city.

The airport will make the announcement during a 9 a.m. press conference on Thursday, according to the release.  

Last month, the airport announced new flights to and from Florida with Allegiant Airlines beginning next year, including Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport and Orlando Sanford International Airport.

In September, United Airlines returned to COU after four years with two daily flights to Chicago O'Hare and Denver. United plans to have three daily flights to Chicago O'Hare in December. American Airlines also has flights to Chicago and Dallas-Forth Worth.

Wednesday’s press release again cited that COU had 14,202 passengers depart from its airport in October, which is a record for the location.
