NATCHEZ, Miss. – Natchez-Adams County officials are talking up plans to get a commercial-passenger airline to serve the local airport.
“That’s something we’re trying to explore to get our airport to do,” said Angela Hutchins, president of the Adams County Board of Supervisors.
The Natchez-Adams County Airport has not had commercial airline service since the mid-1990s, according to the airport’s historical records.
Hutchins named a California-based airline fleeted with small planes as a prospect to provide regular daily flights to and from the Adams County-owned airport. Boutique Air provides airports in 18 states with commuter flights to connect small communities with larger cities and airports.

NATCHEZ, Miss. – Mayor Dan Gibson said he looks forward to Natchez next year being able to simultaneously accommodate riverboats from three cruise-line companies that could bring more than 2,000 visitors per week.
“We’re excited about the cruise lines, ” Gibson said. “They will be seeing Mississippi and seeing Natchez in first-class style.”
Gibson said he’s finalized negotiations with American Cruise Lines, the American Queen Steamboat Coand Viking Cruises for them to build docks on the city’s Silver Street riverfront.
