Today will be a big day at the Owensboro Daviess County Regional Airport. This morning, Cape Air calls for its Inaugural Flight Celebration. The airline has been providing up to 18 round trips to St. Louis per week since Dec. 5, 2011.

Since January Cape Air has flown over 500 passengers in and out of Owensboro using St. Louis as it's hub. Flights are only $49 each way (much cheaper than driving and paying to park elsewhere).

Joe Lowe says he's been told that in addition to the festivities listed above there may be some tickets to St. Louis given away during today's special event.

Joe has have traveled on Cape Air several times in the last few months and found the planes to be comfortable, safe and efficient. He says, "In fact a recent trip to Texas was cheaper and easier than flying from Evansville or Nashville and I was 5 minutes from home when I returned".

Wednesday is a day for citizens of Owensboro to meet the folks at the counter, ask questions and see how easy it is to travel the country and world from Owensboro thanks to Cape Air.

If you can't make it be sure to tune in for Joe's broadcast from the airport on 92.5 WBKR from 11-1.
