A new nonstop air service from Richmond International Airport to Pittsburgh begins March 1.

OneJet, which provides nonstop travel to and from small and medium size markets, announced Wednesday that it is adding service to Richmond and Albany, N.Y., from its Pittsburgh International Airport hub.

The routes join OneJet’s destinations from Pittsburgh, including Hartford, Conn., Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Louisville, and Cincinnati. The company started the service 18 months ago.

Flights on the seven-seat Hawker 400XP twin-engine corporate jet will go on sale Feb. 1, with Richmond service beginning March 1 (and Albany service on March 22).

The average fare in the other markets is about $250 one way, said Matthew Maguire, OneJet’s chief executive officer, adding that he expects the price to be about the same for the Richmond-Pittsburgh route.

OneJet will have one daily nonstop departing Pittsburgh at 8:55 a.m. and arriving at Richmond International at 9:50 a.m. The flight from Richmond to Pittsburgh departs at 4:15 p.m. and arrives at 5:10 p.m.

“Richmond has a good deal of corporate traffic in terms of large companies traveling to that market,” Maguire said. “We build our routes around where our customers’ needs are.”
