"We are disappointed with the decision of the property and management of Frontier Airlines to interrupt the planned service at Wilmington Airport - ILG before the busy summer season," the DRBA said in a statement on May 13. "Given the economic and current work environment, the airline has made commercial choices through its system. We hope that to rationalize current and future resources in anticipation of its proposed merger, the airline will choose to restore strategically the service in Delaware. "

Frontier had recorded more than 10,000 commercial flights out of Wilmington in 2021, which prompted the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to improve the Wilmington-New Château from a "Aviation General Airport" to a " main sales service airport ".

Without more commercial flights, funding will probably be affected and travelers will now have to go to neighboring airports of Baltimore and Philadelphia to board flights. No plan has been announced when commercial flights will return to Delaware, but the DRBA has confirmed that the search for a new service "will remain one of the key objectives".

"DRBA management and staff continue to believe that the planned commercial air service may and will succeed at Wilmington - ILG airport," the statement said. "The excellent location of the airport along the occupied I-95 corridor, as well as the lowest operating environment of all airports in the United States, offers customers the possibility of renouncing stress and expenses from a big city airport.
