When John Cousins needed to fly to California, the first stage of his trip wasn’t to an airport.
His home in Juliette is well within the 19 counties that a recent study says Middle Georgia Regional Airport should serve, but Cousins saw no point in driving 30 miles to catch a Silver Airways flight to Atlanta.
