Quietly, the U.S. Transportation Department has denied a second proposal by Boutique Air Inc. to restore air service to the Chautauqua County Airport in Jamestown.
Order 2020-12-27 was quietly issued on Dec. 31, 2020, denying the Sept. 17, 2019, joint proposal by Chautauqua County and Boutique Air to restore Essential Air Service program money to the Jamestown airport. The airport has been without a commercial air carrier since December 2017, when the federal Transportation Department terminated Essential Air Service eligibility for Jamestown because the local airport wasn’t meeting the federal standard of 10 passengers a day nor the federal government’s $200 per rider subsidy cap.
