Contour will offer twice-daily flights between Georgia and Plattsburgh every day except Tuesdays and Saturdays, when it will offer one flight a day, The Washington Business Journal reported. There are no other direct flights to these cities through Dulles or Reagan National Airport.  

Passengers will be flown on a 30-seat Embraer ERJ-135 aircraft, WBJ reports.
