美国交通部已批准SkyWest航空公司根据一项为期四年的合同,从2025年12月1日起从Paducah的Barkley地区机场到芝加哥奥海尔国际机场提供基本空运服务。 The U.S. Department of Transportation has approved SkyWest Airlines to provide essential air service from Paducah’s Barkley Regional Airport to Chicago O’Hare International Airport starting December 1, 2025, under a four-year contract. SkyWest将使用CRJ-200型飞机进行12次每周往返飞行,取代Contour航空公司,服务定于2026年2月1日开始。 SkyWest will operate 12 weekly round trips using CRJ-200 aircraft, replacing Contour Airlines, with service set to begin February 1, 2026. 虽然由于成本效益高,DOT只批准了芝加哥路线,但SkyWest和当地官员的目标是在现有补贴范围内增加使用CRJ-550型飞机的休斯顿服务。 Although the DOT approved only the Chicago route due to cost-effectiveness, SkyWest and local officials aim to add Houston service using CRJ-550 aircraft within the existing subsidy. 将协调过渡,以防止服务中断,并通过机场的社交媒体渠道分享最新消息。 The transition will be coordinated to prevent service disruption, and updates will be shared via the airport’s social media channels.
