Vaishnav and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Essential Air Service (EAS) program was established in 1978 to guarantee air connectivity for residents of small communities to the national air transportation system. Currently, over half of EAS communities are within 70 highway-miles of another airport leading to passenger leakage at EAS airports and rising program costs. However, communities have shown no interest in accessing federal funds for creative alternatives to air service to connect their residents to the national air transportation system. This paper presents five case studies of EAS communities to understand the reasons why local proponents support air service that is rarely used. The case studies present three main findings: the EAS program is a gateway to federal airport infrastructure funds of the Airport Improvement Program; there is an information gap between the US DOT and the EAS communities regarding existing alternate programs; and local politics and airport administrators0́9 personal professional concern sustains support for local air service. These dynamics lead communities to ignore better alternatives to air service that currently exist or are potentially viable in many EAS communities. The findings of this study have important policy implications: the Congress and the DOT need to define the purpose of the EAS program to target federal funds more efficiently. Further studies on decoupling the impact of general aviation and commercial air service at small airports can help structure an effective federal response to address local concerns regarding the adoption of alternatives to air service with a loss of AIP funds.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) has been subsidizing air service to small rural communities through the Essential Air Service (EAS) program. The original intent of the program was to maintain some level of air service to rural communities that would otherwise not have any. The Rural Survival Act of 1996 established the permanence of the EAS program; the act was fueled by the idea that reliable air services are vital to local rural economies. This idea has been somewhat challenged in recent studies that found little to no economic impacts of air traffic. This project entertained the theory that intercity traffic volume, and not air traffic volume alone, is what affects the economic outcomes of certain geographical areas. A cost-benefit analysis of substituting subsidized air service with a subsidized ground service is presented and concludes that an intercity ground service network can create substantial cost savings on both a per round trip basis and a round trip-seat basis.
