Northwest Airlines National Account Representative Jeff Brand encourages the Columbia City Council to choose service from Mesaba Airlines, a subsidiary of Northwest Airlines, on Monday night. The council expressed agreement with Brand, citing the airline’s connection to Memphis as a departure from past failed airline service to Kansas City.

Airport could expand flights to Memphis (April 22, 2008) — Mesaba would offer 20 roundtrip flights per week to its hub.
