On June 15, 2005, the Department of Transportation (DOT) reselected RegionsAir, Inc. d/b/a AmericanConnection to provide subsidized essential air service (EAS) at the following communities for a new two-year period from June 1, 2005 through May 31, 2007:

Burlington, Iowa

Cape Girardeau, Missouri

Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri

Jackson, Tennessee

Marion/Herrin, Illinois

Owensboro, Kentucky

Kirksville, Missouri

In addition, on January 21, 2005, RegionsAir, Inc. was reselected by the DOT for another two-year term beginning August 1, 2005, for EAS at Quincy, Illinois.

A total of 5 air carriers were interested in the EAS markets, and the DOT made their decision based on four factors: (a) scheduled service reliability; (b) contractual and marketing arrangements with a large carrier to ensure service beyond the hub; (c) interline arrangements the applicant has made with a large carrier at the hub; and (d) community views.

RegionsAir, formerly known as Corporate Airlines, has been serving most of these communities for over 5 years, and with the contract renewals we look forward to a strong relationship with these communities for years to come.
