skywestCRJ2005Jamestown (CSi) The Jamestown Regional Airport Authority Wednesday reviewed the passenger boardings.

Airport Manager Sam Seafeldt said he didn’t have a projection for November but anticipates December passenger boardings to be the best of the year.

Seafeldt said that SkyWest officials are anticipating December being the best month ever for SkyWest passenger boardings.

July has been the best month for passenger boardings for SkyWest so far this year with 872. SkyWest Airlines contracts with United Express to provide two flights daily between Jamestown and Devils Lake and Denver International Airport under the Federal Aviation Administration’s Essential Air Service program.

The current EAS agreement between SkyWest and the FAA for service to Jamestown and Devils Lake expires in 2016. Seafeldt said SkyWest officials said they are interested in bidding for the EAS contract beyond 2016. EAS contracts are two-year agreements.

In other business, the Airport Authority authorized Chairman Jim Boyd and Seafeldt to sign a final farmland lease agreement with Reimers Land Legacy LLC to lease 835 acres of airport land for three years.
