The Chautauqua County-Jamestown Airport won't be re-opening anytime soon.
A proposal submitted last May to restore service between Jamestown and Pittsburgh International Airport was rejected by the U.S. Department of Transportation.
The DOT says there is "an underwhelming performance record of commercial air carriers" to the Chautauqua County-Jamestown Airport.
It also refers to nearby flight alternatives in Buffalo and Erie, Pennsylvania.
The Chautauqua County Executive says Congressman Tom Reed is speaking with the DOT about submitting a new application as soon as possible.
The airport closed a year ago.
