ABERDEEN, S.D.(Press Release)- On Monday November 28, 2022 the City of Aberdeen issued a public statement regarding changes to the December and January flight schedule at the Aberdeen Regional Airport. At that time the airline operator, SkyWest, had announced  the removal of three of the 14 round trip flights between Aberdeen ABR) and Minneapolis (MSP) due to staffing constraints.
