The Bakken Is Back -- March 18, 2019

From the linked article:
When it comes to passengers flying into and out of Williston, the boom is back.
Numbers released this week by the North Dakota Aeronautics Commission show boarding numbers are up 16 percent so far this year compared to 2018 and up 13 percent compared to last February.
In the first two months of the year there were 12,397 passengers at Sloulin Field, compared to 10,657 for the same period last year.

Williston’s numbers are higher than they’ve been since 2015, when nearly 20,000 passengers flew into and out of Sloulin Field in the first two months of the year.
The increase in traffic comes as construction continues on Williston Basin International Airport, which is scheduled to open in October.
