A discussion about the airline industry, airline employees, and all things related

Finally some good news in the airline industry, Skybus is expanding!  Everyone in San Diego; St. Augustine, Florida; and Chicopee, Massachusetts prepare yourself for some cheap flights starting in mid July. 

Apparently people want to travel using Skybus.  Over 20,000 tickets were sold when the three new cities were announced.  And who could blame them; only $10 from Ohio to California, if you were one of the lucky ones.

St. Augustine/St. Johns County Airport will get to you Jacksonville which is only 30 miles away.  Chicopee will get people close to Hartford and Springfield.

Skybus is only using a few aircraft now but has over 60 are on order.  That’s a lot of planes!  But could this rapid growth hurt the airline?  They’ve encountered some minor delays the days after they started operations but nothing too serious.  Maybe people want something like Skybus in the air.  Who knows, Skybus could circle around some seats and start having Pampered Chef Parties in the back of the plane.  It could be the next hot wave in airline travel.
