Steamboat’s ski season airline program is poised to tap into two new markets known as desirable destinations for lovers of barbecue and music. The Steamboat Ski & Resort Corp. announced July 26 that inaugural flights from Austin, Texas, and Kansas City, Missouri, to Yampa Valley Regional Airport will begin Dec. 13 and continue through April. The flights will be on 50-passenger jets flown by ViaAir and are set to run Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Both cities are attractive destinations. Austin has the South by Southwest festival and pit master Aaron Franklin at Franklin’s Barbecue.
