Mesaba Airlines, a subsidiary of Memphis-based Pinnacle Airlines, will close its Eagan, Minn., headquarters on Dec. 26, cutting 193 jobs.
Mesaba, a regional carrier for Delta Air Lines, currently employs about 800 in Minnesota.
Pinnacle spokesman Joe Williams said it remains unclear whether some of those employees will get other jobs with Pinnacle in Memphis. He says that will be resolved by the year?s end.
Mesaba was founded in 1944. Delta sold it to Pinnacle Airlines for $62 million last year.
Pinnacle will keep alive the Mesaba corporate name, but Mesaba will be headquartered in Memphis.
