I tried searching for info, but found nothing on Google. When I have more time I'll try logging in through my university's library to search proquest. Is this something that is at all likely or that is still being pursued? It would seem that we would need a ton more feeder service into Boise for Asia flights to be viable and a much expanded terminal. Seems far-fetched even for Mayor Bieter...
Maybe he was referring to cargo? This has been spoken of before. It will be decades before passenger service is extended to Asia.
