RENO, Nev. — aha!, powered by veteran ExpressJet Airlines, announced today that it will increase flying between Southern California’s Ontario International Airport (ONT) and Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO) on Saturday, August 27, in anticipation of an influx of customers traveling to the Black Rock Desert. The additional flight gives “burners” across greater Los Angeles convenient access northwest Nevada and just a short drive from the Reno Tahoe International Airport, the nearest commercial airport and gateway to the playa.
“aha! is one of the fastest growing regional airlines in the Western US, having recently announced new service to Santa Rosa, Boise, and Idaho Falls, and the additional Ontario flight is perfectly timed for our customers in the LA basin who are seeking easy access to northwest Nevada,” said Tim Sieber, head of ExpressJet’s aha! business unit. “Our network is focused on bringing people to and from the Reno-Lake Tahoe region, and this event in the Black Rock Desert provides us with an excellent opportunity to add an extra frequency so more people can experience aha! flying.”
aha! operates the roundtrip Ontario-Reno route with 50-seat Embraer ERJ145 regional jets and is regularly flown on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. aha! also flies from 10 other cities throughout California, Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.
The festival in the Black Rock Desert runs from August 28 through September 5, 2022. The additional nonstop Ontario-Reno flight is conveniently timed for “burners” and will depart Saturday, August 27, at 3:00 p.m. PT.
