Wanting information on the new Branson Airport. My # 3 daughter and grand daughter moved to Springfield, MO and is looking to fly to Orlando around Thanksgiving +/-. Is it easy to get to? Is there plenty of parking and what do they charge? Etc.?

Wouldn't the Springfield airport be more convenient?

My sister lives in Ozark (right between Springfield and Branson). She was quite excited about the Branson airport, but said that so far the flights are more infrequent than at Springfield. Or maybe it was just for the particular airline she was looking at.

We fly Allegiant from Springfield to Stanford/Orlando.

Inexpensive except during peak holiday times, and has always been on time.

You fly direct instead of through Atlanta like from Branson.

No frills.

google em and book online cuz they don't do anything over the phone, including answering it, and have no tollfree number.

I have a friend who works at the Branson airport, a real estate agent who lost just about everything last year. It is still shaking out the bugs.

Still somewhat out-of-place when those planes fly over so low . . . . we're not use to it yet.

The rumor is that the guy who had it built on his private property is selling off his 1957 automobile collection . . . the Patch Collection. It has been in this theater, originally the Dick Clark Theater. I have not googled that yet to confirm it.
