Historical airline service

Show Low first began receiving commercial air service in 1994 by Scenic Airlines and Arizona Pacific Airlines, both providing commuter aircraft flights to Phoenix. Arizona Pacific ended service the following year and Scenic ended in 1996. Great Lakes Airlines then provided service to Phoenix from 1996 through 1997. Service returned in 1999 by Sunrise Airlines, an offshoot of Scenic Airlines, but ended in 2000. The city was then able to secure subsidized air service under the Essential Air Service program and Great Lakes Airlines returned in 2005 with flights to both Phoenix and Denver, the latter making a stop at Farmington, NM. Great Lakes was replaced in 2015 by Boutique Air, which only had flights to Phoenix. Flights are currently operated by Southern Airways Express which took over service from Boutique Air on July 16, 2022.
