Cape Air discontinues service between New Bedford and Boston

Cape Air is discontinuing its route that connects Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and New Bedford Regional Airport (EWB) less than two months after the service became available.

 

The airline announced Wednesday that the service was discontinued on Nov. 7 following the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) decision to require a 10% reduction in air traffic at busy airports, including Logan Airport.

 

“While this decision was not made lightly, Cape Air remains deeply committed to serving Greater New Bedford,” the company said. “Despite strong marketing efforts and public engagement, current demand levels do not support continued operation of the EWB–BOS route under present conditions.”
