The jet maintenance operation of ExpressJet at Shreveport Regional airport is leaving our community. The company, which operates a jet maintenance facility at Shreveport Regional Airport, plans to relocate those operations to its Tennessee facility. This will mean the loss of close to 300 local jobs.

ExpressJet has operated the maintenance facility here for 13 years. The company maintains jets for three airlines. Some of the workers will have the opportunity to relocate to other jobs within the company.

The plan is to shut the local facility by June of next year. Employees got the bad news on Friday.
