Great
Lakes Airlines, a regional carrier based in Denver, has canceled all of its
scheduled flights as of Tuesday, citing a lack of pilots, the Denver Post has
reported. The airline posted a notice on its website noting the company has
not entered bankruptcy and will continue to operate scheduled service as
Great Lakes Express between Denver and two cities in South Dakota. Great
Lakes had flown to Los Angeles, Phoenix and several other regional
destinations. “It’s just plain, fundamental draining of availability of
pilots,” Great Lakes CEO Doug Voss told the Post. “At the end of the day,
it’s about the pilot-supply issue and how government is managing the
consequences of it.” The shutdown will leave Cheyenne and Telluride without
air service from Denver.
