From Atlantic to Pacific, gee, the traffic is terrific—but residents can rise above the traffic thanks to extra flights at Victoria Regional Airport during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons.
The additional flights to and from Houston are scheduled on the following dates:
- Saturday, Nov. 30
- Tuesday, Dec. 3
- Saturday, Dec. 21
- Thursday, Dec. 28
These flights are in addition to the airport’s regular daily United Express flight schedule. Residents can view available flights at www.flyvictoriatx.com.
The schedule was developed through collaboration between the City, the County and SkyWest Airlines to provide residents with convenient options when planning holiday travel.
“When residents are using our service to fly into Houston and then on to another location, having multiple flight times to choose from can help them to avoid layovers,” said Victoria Regional Airport Executive Director Lenny Llerena. “With our short lines and free parking, the Victoria Regional Airport takes the hassle out of holiday travel, and we hope that residents will keep their local airport in mind as they are making plans to visit loved ones.”
The airport is also working to secure additional United Express flights in 2025 to accommodate travel around spring break, Memorial Day and Labor Day, as well as throughout the summer. More information will be provided as it becomes available.
