After a five year absence American Eagle Airlines will resume daily direct flights from Joplin, Missouri to Dallas, Texas.
"We're very excited to come to Joplin," says American Airlines business development manager Brett Hooyerink. "It speaks a lot for the community that we're coming back amidst the economic challenges that the rest of the country faces and I think that we see that there is an opportunity here in Joplin, and we're looking to the community for support and want the community to know that we are going to be a great partner.
