Default Cities to lose service named

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/08/20/coro...-runs-out.html

15 cities to lose service, 9 of them only had AA:

9 to lose all service because AA was only airline: Del Rio, Texas; Dubuque, Iowa; Florence, South Carolina; Greenville, North Carolina; Huntington, West Virginia; Joplin, Missouri; New Haven, Connecticut; Roswell, New Mexico; Stillwater, Oklahoma and Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

6 to lose AA but have other airlines: Sioux City, Iowa; Kalamazoo/Battle Creek, Michigan; Huntington, West Virginia, New Windsor, New York, Springfield, Illinois; Lake Charles, Louisiana

Laughlin AFB is in Del Rio, it is the largest of the Air Force's Pilot Training Bases. Lots of military coming and going. I believe the nearest airline service will now be SAT which is 2.5 hours drive time.

How are we going to get out of Roswell after we keep parking jets?

I don't think I want to try to go to FDO training now, either.

Who would want to buy all that land in Del Rio? I think that's the base's best defense against being shut down. I doubt the area has enough skilled labor to support a large manufacturing complex.

Anyone done a breakdown as to which regionals get hit how much by these? Looks like mostly regionals, any main line?
