Federal subsidies extend rural air service through Nov. 18 amid shutdown, preventing cuts.
Federal subsidies for Essential Air Service flights at rural airports, including Mid-Ohio Valley Regional Airport, have been extended through at least Nov. 18, 2025, due to the ongoing government shutdown.
The U.S. Department of Transportation secured $41 million in funding to maintain air service, allowing Contour Airlines to continue operating under the AEAS program after Air Wisconsin withdrew.
The extension prevents service cuts originally scheduled for Oct. 12, with carriers required to uphold existing contracts.
A Senate-passing continuing resolution could extend funding through Nov. 21, but it remains stalled.
The source of the funding was not disclosed, and the shutdown’s impact on air traffic control staffing persists.
