of Bangor International Airport
In the spring or summer of 1997 Air Holland plans to start offering charter flights between Amsterdam and the U.S. The carrier has expressed particular interest in providing service to Bangor in order to facilitate eco-tourism excursions to Maine and other parts of New England for travellers from Europe. Bangor is fully supportive of Air Holland's plans to operate to Bangor as a destination, and welcomes the carrier's efforts to bring increased tourism to New England, which is bound to stimulate the economies of New England communities.
