John Ensign: “The amendment does not reduce the number of flights between DCA and small cities within the 1,250-mile perimeter; it…”

On the recordMarch 22, 2010
The amendment does not reduce the number of flights between DCA and small cities within the 1,250-mile perimeter; it does not affect the slot regulations at DCA; it does not increase the number of allowable flight operations at the airport; and it does not impact the small and medium size airports inside the perimeter. Rather, the amendment is a reasonable pro-competition solution that gives tourists and business travelers from around the nation another option for visiting the nation's Capital.
