Compass Airlines to shut down operations
Compass Airlines, which flies regional routes for American Airlines as American Eagle out of its Los Angeles hub, will shut down completely April 7, the second US regional carrier to fall victim to the coronavirus, according to a letter employees say they received. The airline, owned by Trans States Holdings, said Tuesday that another of its subsidiaries, Trans States Airlines, a regional carrier for United Airlines, would also shutter operations April 1. “Demand has diminished to a point that American has made the decision to remove a large majority of American Eagle flights in Los Angeles starting April 7, which will effectively eliminate all our remaining flying with the start of the April 7 schedule,” CE Rick Leach wrote in a memo to employees March 19. <br/>
