Contour Airlines announces new daily service between Williamsport, PA and Charlotte, NC

Contour Airlines will begin daily nonstop flights between Williamsport Regional Airport (IPT) and Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) starting October 19, 2026. The carrier says the new route gives travelers across Williamsport and the broader North Central Pennsylvania region a direct connection to Charlotte, where they can transfer to hundreds of destinations in the U.S. and beyond via Contour partner airlines. Contour will operate the service as a daily option for both business and leisure travel. IPT Executive Director Eric McKitish described the partnership as a major step that improves access to the national airspace system. Airport officials also highlighted that the route will use 30-seat regional jets and position Charlotte as a core hub destination.
