SkyWest will continue service between the Southwest Oregon Regional Airport (OTH) in North Bend, Ore., and Portland International Airport (PDX) without subsidy.

SkyWest will also continue service between San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and North Bend (OTH).

"We are excited to continue to offer multiple flight options for the North Bend Coos Bay community," said Mike Lehman, Chairman, Coos County Airport District. "By no longer requiring subsidy payments, SkyWest has shown its commitment to this community and has invested in the future of travel to Oregon's beautiful southern coast."

Since agreeing to take over service between Southwest Oregon Regional Airport and Portland International Airport in fall 2008, SkyWest and the airport have worked together to ensure better service and travel options on their northbound routes. Load factors during the summer months have been on the rise, and continued community support is essential to ensure ongoing service.
