Closure Update:
It was announced several weeks ago the airport will be closed next spring from May 6-23, and the exact closure and reopening times have recently been announced. The airport will now close at 8 AM on Monday, May 6, and is now scheduled to reopen at 7 PM on Thursday, May 23. This will allow the final two inbound commercial flights to operate on Sunday, May 5, along with the first two outbound flights from ASE at 7:45 AM and 7:50 AM on Monday, May 6. Likewise with the airport now scheduled to reopen at 7 PM on the 23rd, this will allow nearly all evening inbound remain overnight’s (RON’s) to operate as scheduled, enabling aircraft and flight crews to be in position to operate all scheduled flights in both directions on Friday, May 24. While not all published selling schedules from the airlines reflect this planned closure yet, those schedules are expected to be adjusted over the coming weeks.
