Contour Airlines

SMYRNA, Tenn. – October 21, 2026 -- DuBois Regional Airport (DUJ) gets nonstop jet service to Atlanta and Chicago O'Hare starting February 1, 2027, when Contour Airlines launches two new routes.

Atlanta flights run daily, Chicago flights five days a week

Contour will connect DUJ to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) every day and to Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD) five days per week. Both hubs offer onward connections across the United States and around the world. Travelers in the region can start those trips locally instead of driving to a larger airport.

Contour flies 30-seat regional jets with extra legroom

The airline will operate the routes with 30-seat regional jets. Contour says its aircraft have leather seating with expanded legroom in every row, plus complimentary snacks, beverages, and inflight service.

Muscle Shoals – September 30, 2026 -- Contour Airlines will launch nonstop service between Northwest Alabama Regional Airport (MSL) and Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) starting November 12, 2026, operating five round trips per week.

Charlotte service stays daily despite the schedule shift

To add the Dallas-Fort Worth route, Contour is reallocating five weekly flights from its existing Muscle Shoals-Charlotte schedule. Daily nonstop service to Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) will continue unaffected.

The new route opens connections through a major American Airlines hub

Barry Griffith, Airport Director at Northwest Alabama Regional Airport, said DFW is a highly sought-after nonstop destination for local travelers. He added that the route is expected to increase passenger traffic, provide seamless American Airlines connections, and deliver economic benefits to the region.

Smyrna, Tenn. – September 15, 2026 -- Contour Airlines will begin seasonal nonstop flights between Cape Girardeau Regional Airport (CGI) in Missouri and Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB) in Florida starting December 16, 2026.

The route will operate every Wednesday and Saturday through March 27, 2027, giving Southeast Missouri travelers a direct option for winter getaways to Central Florida.

The airline is building on demand from an existing Florida route

Contour says strong bookings on its seasonal Cape Girardeau-to-Pensacola service showed demand for direct Florida access from the region, prompting the new Orlando Sanford route.

"Adding seasonal service between Cape Girardeau and Central Florida gives travelers in the region another convenient way to escape the winter," said Ben Munson, President of Contour Airlines.
