Great Lakes Airlines suspends operations

Great Lakes Airlines suspended all flight operations at midnight Monday. The airline announced Monday evening that all future scheduled flights are canceled effective immediately. The company has not declared bankruptcy, though. According to the airline, it “will continue to operate certain segments of the business,” including support for Aerodynamics Inc. flights between Denver and South Dakota cities. Other Great Lakes-serviced cities, including Prescott, Arizona, are left without any access to commercial air service, and report the announcement was unexpected by officials. There have been indicators of the airline’s financial stress throughout the years. During its heyday, the airline serviced nearly 100 cities. This number continued to decline and, by 2016, service had dropped to 13 airports in 7 states. <br/>
