Cost diverts flying to Paducah, Ky.

To the editor;

In response to the story "Cape's flight plans": I try to fly home to Advance from Jacksonville, Fla., approximately twice a year. I am always amazed at how expensive it is to get a flight into Cape Girardeau. What I end up doing is flying into Paducah, Ky., via Atlanta or Memphis in most cases and then rent a car. Trying to fly into Cape via St. Louis, Atlanta or Memphis is, at the least, twice as expensive. I can't explain why this is anymore than I can find out from the airlines why flying into Cape is so much more expensive than flying into Paducah. Bottom line: Flights in and out of Cape are out of line with regard to price. So for now, my money goes to Paducah instead of Cape.

Good luck fixing the pricing problem. I truly wish you, and ultimately myself, the best.
