Contour Airlines (self-handling)
Contour appears to self-handle its PBG station, which operates Essential Air Service to Washington-Dulles under a DOT-funded EAS contract (about $21.6M over three years, Oct 2024-Sept 2027, recommended by Clinton County); Contour's own job postings for the station describe cross-utilized airport agents performing ticket counter, gate, ramp marshaling/baggage handling and aircraft cleaning/servicing, and no third-party ground handler is named for PBG.
