Non-Stop Flight to...VACATION!!!

Posted by Kevin Hughes on Sunday, July 10th, 2011 at 11:43am.

Everybody loves a great vacation- but does getting to your vacation sometimes seem like a chore? If you don't live near an airport it could make things a little hectic. In Boise, many residents can pull out of the driveway... get to the airport and jump on the plane in less than 30 minutes for a quick vacation get away.
Home In Boise

The 
Boise Airport (BOI) has a great location on the South side of the city of Boise just past I84. The airport is close...but not too close...to most Boise neighborhoods. This is the major airport serving Idahoans in the southwestern part of the state. The regional airport is served by six airlines with scheduled non-stop service to 15 cities.The airlines are:
  • Alaska/Horizon
  • Delta 
  • Frontier
  • Southwest
  • United Airlines
  • US Airways
There are a number of smaller air services providing flights to rural Idaho communities. Charter companies have flights to the main Boise airport from several local airports. McCall Aviation is one of the larger in-state carriers with year-round scheduled service and charters. McCall Air flies into the back country with service to McCall and other towns from Boise giving easy access to other Idaho properties which are sometimes off the beaten path.

The Boise airport, under the direction of the Boise Department of Aviation, is located only five minutes from downtown. The airport features an elevated roadway for departures, eight curbside check in counters, 44 inside 
counters, free Wi-fi and a cell phone waiting lot for passenger pick up.                                                                                                                           
PARKING
Leaving a car in the covered parking structure is easy with more than 1,300 spaces available for short term and long term parking. This adds to the advantage of owning Boise real estate. Shuttle service is also available to the airport from downtown hotels.
