United Airlines is adding new flights between Bismarck and Chicago.

Right now you can usually count on there being at least one flight to Bismarck from Chicago per day. For example today (Jan. 8) there is one flight to Bismarck from Chicago via American Airlines.

But beginning in June of this year, there will be more opportunities to fly to Bismarck from Chicago. In a press release from United Airlines, the airline states that there will be two daily flights from Chicago to Bismarck.

This is on top of other airlines also offering trips from Chicago.

United has a new bank structure at O'Hare airport in Chicago that will begin operation in February allowing the airline to provide more connections via Chicago.

Flights to Bismarck from Chicago will be flown on one of United's ERJ jets which seats 44 passengers in economy and six additional passengers in economy plus.

The new flight routes will officially begin June 7.
