Did you know that North Dakota was the inspiration behind Teddy Roosevelt’s National Forest Service, the governing body that was put in place to preserve America’s great parklands? The picturesque farmlands and wheat fields of North Dakota and the various historic sites that grace the state keep visitors booking flights to North Dakota year after year.
Farmland makes up more than 90 percent of North Dakota land, making this state the most rural of all the states. It’s no surprise then that North Dakota ranks first in the nation’s production of wheat and also churns out other agricultural products including barley, rye, sunflowers, oats, and hay.
Visitors to North Dakota take pleasure in the state’s forests and recreation areas. Deer and pheasant hunting, along with bass and trout fishing, keep visitors booking flights to North Dakota. Some of the greater points of interest in North Dakota include the International Peace Garden near Dunseith, Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site, and of course, the Theodore Roosevelt National Park.

Off Season:
Fall and hunting season are popular, but the winters are so harsh that few people visit. Cheap flights to North Dakota are likely found during the winter months, but bundle up before boarding the flight.
