Connecting small communities across the American Midwest.

Founded
2005
Headquarters
St. Louis, United States
Air Choice One is a regional airline based in the United States that primarily serves small and underserved communities in the Midwest and Southeast. The carrier operates Essential Air Service (EAS) routes, providing federally subsidized air service to communities that would otherwise lack commercial airline access. Founded in 2005, the airline has focused on point-to-point service linking smaller cities to major hub airports such as Chicago O'Hare and St. Louis. Air Choice One operates a small fleet of turboprop and regional aircraft suited to the short-haul, low-frequency routes it serves. As a participant in the U.S. Department of Transportation's Essential Air Service program, Air Choice One plays an important role in maintaining air connectivity for rural communities, fulfilling a public service mandate that larger carriers typically do not serve.

Air Choice One primarily operates from St. Louis Lambert International Airport and Chicago O'Hare International Airport as its main connecting hubs.
Fleet
Air Choice One operates a small fleet of Cessna 208 Caravan and Beechcraft 1900 turboprop aircraft suited for short regional routes.
