The Louisville newspaper had this story in a prominent position on its home page Thursday:

Airport shuttle company abruptly closes leaving travelers stranded, seeking refunds

A Colorado-based airport shuttle company has shut down and abruptly closed its doors, leaving travelers stranded after announcing an uptick in insurance costs and airport fees among other issues.

“With a heavy heart, we’ve made the decision to shut down,” Eight Black Airport Shuttle, based in Longmont, post on its website June 13.

The municipality in Boulder and Weld counties is about 45 miles northwest of the Denver International Airport.

Why are we supposed to care? This is in Colorado. There is no Kentucky connection. To top it off, there’s no relevant shuttle service to Muhammad Ali International Airport that merits even the slightest interest in this story.

The CJ could focus on the lack of public transportation to our airport. It could point out that a municipal bus runs once an hour, an embarrassing shortcoming in a city that wants people to believe it’s as up to date as neighboring big cities (even though it isn’t).

Just a paragraph giving some local context would help, but instead, they’re just pulling stuff off the Gannett wire and not bothering to tell us why this matters.

And since they’re not going to help us out, I guess we will. Here’s a link to what you need to know to get to the Louisville airport. As the web page says:

Getting in and out of an airport can seem stressful – luckily, at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport, we have plenty of options to make your visit a breeze. Whether you’re arriving or departing, we’re here to help.

Too bad the C-J isn’t helping.
