Summary: An individual traveler expresses support for the Southern Airways Express proposal based on their personal experience using the airline to travel to a rural area. They argue that the service is a vital connection for a community that produces a significant portion of the nation's fresh food, especially during winter months.
Two months ago, I needed to get to my daughter who is attending school in Santa Cruz. There are physical challenges for me to try to drive that far, especially last minute. Southern Airways made it possible for me to get there quickly, pain free. I urge you to take a look at where you are sitting while making this decision. It may seem 'out there' to some, but, especially during winter months, this is home to the community that grows over 75% of the nation's fresh food. Resources are slim enough out here, we need this connection to the rest of the country.
