COLORADO SPRINGS — Denver-based Frontier Airlines has canceled plans to build a $25 million heavy-maintenance hangar at Colorado Springs Airport as the carrier reorganizes under bankruptcy protection.
Frontier spokesman Steve Snyder said the airline no longer needs the facility because it has reduced the size of its fleet. He said the airline plans no reduction in passenger service to Colorado Springs.
The company also reported preliminary traffic numbers for October. The airline carried 829,770 passengers, a 5.7 percent decrease from October 2007. Passenger revenue per available seat mile was 8.75 cents, up 70 cents from the same period a year ago.
