Hundreds of small and mid-sized airports across the United States have steadily lost flights from the 1990s onward, a trend that the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated. This leaves millions to drive hours before they’re able to board a flight. This is just one symptom of a modern aviation mess that dates back to a 1978 law—one that was supposed to prevent much of what people hate about flying today.

But now, nearly 50 years later, two new airlines are hoping to cure that headache by pinning their hopes on the resurrection of these left-behind airports.
