I think theres a bit of a sticking point with Decatur, Ft. Leonardwood (TBN), and Burlington. Decatur and Burlington picked an airline that promised them flights to ORD, which they (as of yet) can't officially provide. TBN selected Gulfstream who got none of the other selections and will not provide service to only one city. I don't know if DOT is giving the airline more time to negotiate for space at ORD or giving cities more time to make an alternate selection (or both).
