What it does
The Essential Air Service Reliability Act of 2025 would amend federal law to require applicants seeking compensation for providing basic essential air service to include a contingency plan ensuring continued service during non-weather-related disruptions. The bill affects airlines and other entities applying for federal subsidies to maintain air service to eligible rural or underserved communities. It mandates that the Secretary of Transportation enforce this requirement within 180 days of enactment and makes a conforming amendment to related provisions in Title 49 of the U.S. Code.
