Order Approving Alternate Service Patterns and Revising Subsidy Payouts

On January 11, 2008, Colgan submitted a proposal to change Johnston's hub from Pittsburgh to Dulles, and to operate 23 round trips a week at each community, consisting of a mix of nonstop flights and one-stop flights via the other community, in lieu of the 18 nonstop round trips a week at each community authorized by Order 2007-2-17. Colgan proposes to operate the modified service patterns with no change in the previously authorized subsidies, and anticipates implementing the modified patterns on February 4.

We approve the alternate service patterns for Altoona and Johnstown, Pennsylvania, proposed by Colgan Air, Inc. We set the final rates of compensation for Colgan Air, Inc., for the provision of essential air service at Altoona and Johnstown, Pennsylvania from the date on which Colgan implements the proposed service patterns through May 31, 2009.

Altoona $606.19
Johnstown $407.73
