Multi-Aero, Inc., doing business as (d/b/a) Air Choice One, is an American airline with its headquarters in Concord, Missouri in Greater St. Louis. It acts as a regional airline offering commuter flights from Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, O'Hare International Airport and Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport to smaller regional airports, subsidized under the Essential Air Service program.
Multi-Aero was founded in 1979 under the name Multi-Aero Corporation. In October 2009 Air Choice One won the EAS contract to serve Decatur, Illinois and Burlington, Iowa.
In December 2011, Air Choice One was awarded a 1-year EAS contract to replaceSeaPort Airlines in Jonesboro, AR with the date to begin service set at February 13, 2012
In January 2013 the DOT granted Air Choice One a 3-year contract extension for both Decatur, Illinois and Burlington, Iowa. As a stipulation for obtaining both extensions Air Choice One implemented systems for electronic ticketing and baggage agreements via WorldSpan (a part of the global distribution system, or GDS) in December 2012. This allows passengers to book tickets with connections to and from other major airlines on popular travel websites in a "one-click" process, as opposed to buying tickets at one airline and then having to book tickets with another on two separate confirmations.
In February 2014 Air Choice One was awarded by the DOT a 4-year extension on their Jonesboro, Arkansas EAS contract. In the same month, there were three proposals sent out by them to the following cities for EAS service: Ironwood, Michigan,Fort Dodge, Iowa, and Mason City, Iowa.
