Regional flights take a lot of criticism. Small, cramped and with few services you can see why there not popular. But they’re also magical. Frequently it’s the small plans that take us on the last legs to the lesser accessible locations. Delta’s connection flight from their Salt Lake City hub to West Yellowstone airport is just such a regional route. From West Yellowstone airport you’re in Yellowstone National Park in 10 minutes.

Even though this route only flies 5 months of the years with a small schedule, the flight is relatively affordable if booked in advance. It’s more or less comfortable do so, it’s a short duration, and although West Yellowstone is an outpost airport, it’s hospitable enough for a journey in and out of. You also have rental car services, a small restaurant, and the small town of West Yellowstone five minutes away. I highly recommend this route into Yellowstone National Park, and I look forward to doing the journey again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
