American Eagle Airlines operating under the American Eagle brand was changed to Envoy Air in 2014. Service was soon supplemented by ExpressJet Airlines and by SkyWest Airlines, both operating as American Eagle and both operating Canadair CRJ-200 and CRJ-700 regional jets. Service to Los Angeles ended on September 8, 2015 and new westbound service to Phoenix began on December 15, 2016 with one daily flight. With the new Phoenix flight and an upgrade of aircraft type on the DFW flights to the CRJ-700, the year 2017 saw a 41 percent increase in passenger traffic at SAF. A second daily flight to Phoenix was added in May, 2019 utilizing a Canadair CRJ-900 regional jet operated by Mesa Airlines. This aircraft, seating up to 79 passengers, is the largest to serve Santa Fe. In March, 2020, two of the DFW flights were upgraded to CRJ-900's and by summer of 2020, plans called for five daily flights to DFW, three of which would utilize the CRJ-900 and two on the 76-seat Embraer 175. Service to Los Angeles was also planned to resume with one flight on Saturdays only. All of these plans came to a halt in mid-March 2020 with the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus. Instead, service was scaled back to three daily flights to DFW only using CRJ-700 aircraft. The Phoenix flights were discontinued by the end of June, 2020 but are planned to resume in 2021 along with the planned frequency of five daily flights to DFW.
