    Airport representatives say they aren't happy about the hold up. Bill Clevenger, the executive director of the Decatur Park District says, "This is a real significant issue for us and our expectations for Regions is that they live up to the terms of the contract that they're functioning under...Regions needs to provide the service we expect."
    Regions Ar says it will contact you if your flight has been canceled and its doing the best it can to get passengers connected out of neighboring airports.
