The airline will cancel one of its two daily flights in June as part of a nationwide downsizing, said Meadows Field marketing manager Teresa Hitchcock.

“We're fortunate to only have lost one flight. Some communities have lost services altogether,” Hitchcock said.

While Delta is scaling back, United has added a second daily flight from Meadows Field to Denver. Flights now depart Bakersfield daily at 6 a.m., and 2 p.m., Hitchcock said.

“Airlines are not in expansion mode right now so (the Denver flight) has to be doing very well,” Hitchcock said.
