Comair is a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta Air Lines based in Erlanger, Kentucky, USA, a city near the Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky International Airport, which serves Cincinnati, Ohio.
Comair is one of the world's largest regional airlines and, with over $1 billion in annual revenue, would be considered a major airline carrier except for the fact that its aircraft seat less than 100 people. Operating under the brand name Delta Connection, Comair operates passenger services to a large number of destinations in the USA, Canada, Mexico and the Bahamas. .
It also operates some flights from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Recently, Comair announced it will close its bases in Greensboro North Carolina, and Orlando, Florida. Comair has also opened a base in New York JFK. In late 2006, Comair had the lowest percentage of on time flights of all major U.S. carriers. This was the result of starting operations from JFK, a notoriously congested airport that severely dropped Comair's ratings in the FAA listings.
