Expanded Service to Pangborn Airport with New Routes in East Wenatchee

October 3, 2025

Beginning Monday, October 6, Link Transit will launch two new routes in East Wenatchee, expanding service along Grant Road and providing direct connections to residential areas and Pangborn Memorial Airport.

As part of these changes, Route 11 will be discontinued, with coverage now provided by Route 15 and Route 19.

Route 15 will operate from Columbia Station to Wenatchee Valley Mall, then continue along Eastmont Avenue, 4th Street, and Kentucky Avenue before traveling up Grant Road to Pangborn Airport, serving several new stops along the way. Service will run Monday through Friday from 5:30 a.m. to 8:50 p.m., with limited weekend hours. Passengers travelling at midday will have access to Link’s fare-free service to and from the airport.

“We are excited to expand our transit service up Grant Road to Pangborn,” said Nick Covey, Link TransitCEO. “The community asked, and we delivered. These new routes will connect more residents to our fare-free service while supporting growth around the airport and surrounding industries. While we cannot currently meet early-morning and late-night flight schedules, we remain committed to working with Pangborn as the airport continues to expand.”

Route 19 will continue to serve East Wenatchee, connecting Columbia Station, Wenatchee Valley Mall, Fred Meyer, Confluence East Wenatchee Clinic, Columbia Valley Community Health, and area schools between 3rd and 8th streets.

Riders are encouraged to review updated schedules, as some departure times and stop locations have changed.
