–from Mikaela Cowles for Kenmore Air–
Seattle-based airline Kenmore Air announced [August 4] it would put tickets on sale for just $89 each way including taxes between Seattle and Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands starting this Wednesday.
“Our customers, fans and friends voted and we listened! Orcas Island is this year’s winner for the 3rd year in a row of our “Vote for your Favorite Island” contest! Thank you for the 1,200+ votes we received on our Facebook page.” said Todd Banks, President of Kenmore Air.
What this means is that people have 4 days this week – August 5, 6, 7, & 8 – to book their $89 seats between Seattle & Orcas Island for travel September 21, 2015 to November 25, 2015; December 2, 2015 to December 17, 2015; and January 2, 2016 to March 31, 2016. That’s about 35% off regular fares!
