Madison, WI – The Dane County Regional Airport (DCRA) is ready to serve travelers from South Central Wisconsin and beyond as the busy summer travel season kicks off right before Memorial Day with the return of non-stop service from MSN to Los Angeles (LAX). The inaugural Breeze Airways seasonal flight to LA was celebrated during a news conference held at DCRA on May 22nd. County officials and business leaders recognized this important addition to DCRA’s service and sent the first flight on its way. This event marked the third new non-stop flight launched by MSN and Breeze Airways in the last three months, in addition to service to Tampa and Orlando, Florida.
 

“MSN is so pleased to be able to once again offer a non-stop flight to LAX, and excited to have yet another offering from our newest carrier Breeze Airways,” said Airport Director Kim Jones. “Los Angeles offers DCRA travelers connections to many popular domestic and international destinations and is a desired destination for business and leisure travel in and of itself. The more local travelers that choose MSN for their summer travel plans, the more opportunities we have to add new airlines and non-stop destinations to our network. Plus, with new shopping, dining, and bar options available to travelers, every passenger can enjoy an upgraded travel experience when they fly local at MSN.”
 

“We are excited to have non-stop flights to LAX once again at the Dane County Regional Airport,” said acting Dane County Executive Patrick Miles. “We thank Breeze Airways for investing in South Central Wisconsin and providing this seasonal opportunity for travelers. Additional non-stop flights like this significantly impact the local economy and connect our region to other parts of the country.”
 

Guests at the gate and passengers on this first flight enjoyed the star treatment, including celebratory food and beverage, and complimentary DCRA items to make travel even easier and more fun.
 

Celebrating 85 years of commercial flight, the Dane County Regional Airport provides seamless, low-stress, and affordable options for both leisure and business travelers with daily arrivals and departures, non-stop and one-stop service that provides access to nearly every worldwide destination.
 

In addition, DCRA recently opened all gates in the 90,000-square-foot expansion of its south terminal, with new and updated amenities aimed at making travel easier and more convenient, such as a new Mother’s Lounge, Children’s Play Area, Meeting Rooms, free WiFi-6, an indoor Pet Relief area and more.
