Hopefully, I can get back to a more extensive report of this meeting soon. However, I did want to get this info out there.
There are no flights scheduled into Tunica Airport in Aug, Sep, Oct and Nov of 2015. This is not good news. Makes me wonder why we built this entity in the first place. Again, there is not a feasibility study to help us to understand the basis for this decision.
We have to start seriously getting more money into Tunica County. More events at the Arena and maybe it is time to repurpose the RiverPark.
22 Jul 2015: Update from a reader:
Just a quick update on scheduled flights into Tunica – there have been 3 to 5 flights each week during July. There are negotiations underway with Horseshoe to continue these flights. If there is a continuation in a upturn of people returning to the Casinos then I’m sure this will weigh heavily in the their decision to continue the flights. .
Blogger: I've contacted Administration for an update and/or response. The new info says there are no flights scheduled for Aug, Sep, Oct and Nov 2015. The original post above has been corrected.
