What's so bad about having screening in PDX after arriving. Presumably that means O/D traffic to and from PDX would be security free. Which would be awesome, and for others, sure you'd have to add a bit of time for security in PDX, but you wouldn't spend the time in security at Klammath Falls, so I would think it's more or less a wash, time wise.

I thought the whole point of the security screen was to ostensibly not have people bring dangerous objects *onto* the aircraft

There's no screening on some of the PenAir flights in Alaska (for example, Dutch Harbor). Haven't seen those planes falling out of the sky.

Financially, things must be pretty bad if all the non-EAS routes are being axed on a couple of days notice. UA will be pleased to have OTH, RDD to themselves again and be able to put the communities back over the barrel price wise.

It's bad enough with the schedule and price already. It makes more sense for me and my family to fly out of EUG or PDX even with the price and time cost (2 and 4 hour drive). I end up over nighting in SFO to avoid missing flights because of the ATC issue, adding to the price of the ticket.

But for you golfers out there, thanks for coming to Bandon! Any bit of tourism helps our economy!

Per ADN, PenAir filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy this morning. Alaska ops will not be affected.

Bigger news out of this honestly is that they are hacking the EAS services out of DEN...pending the approval of the DOT. IIRC, in these cases the DOT usually works to be sure the EAS routes would be covered by another carrier, not clear who would absorb that (perhaps CapeAir could be a candidate) in these cases.

Impacted routes are to small cities in Nebraska and Kansas, primarily.

EAS out of PDX too. CEC is being ended now.

This is disappointing. I actually used the ACV and CEC routes occasionally. Though it does make sense as I was the only person on the plane a few times.

Was scheduled to fly to ACV at the end of the week. Rebooked to CEC instead. Not the easiest rebooking process but AS took care of it.

Unfortunate. Liked how KS was expanding in L48. Heard the Saab 2000's had a few issues- imagine that was expensive.

This has potential to cause issues with the AAG as DUT ops is operated by KS. I know KS says they won't be changing BOS or ANC ops, but with bankrupcy...
