After years of trying to attract additional air service, Tweed New Haven Regional Airport officials are pursuing a new route to try to make Tweed a more enticing choice to cost-conscious prospective airlines.

Continental Airlines and its regional affiliate ExpressJet Airlines - the top two carriers at Newark Liberty International Airport -- were fined a combined $100,000 Tuesday by the U.S. Department of Transportation for holding passengers for nearly six hours this summer on a grounded aircraft in Minnesota. Mesaba Airlines, which provided ground-handling services for the flight, was fined $75,000.
It is the first time airlines were fined because of a long tarmac delay, and that could signal a tougher government stand on behalf of passengers stuck for hours in grounded aircraft -- a key issue in an ongoing debate in Congress over airline passenger rights.
