New U.S. low cost JetAmerica to fly in June
May 28, 2009
A new low-cost airline will begin serving mid-sized U.S. cities that it thinks larger carriers have left behind. Clearwater-based JetAmerica said 34 nonstop passenger flights a week will start July 13 at Toledo, Ohio; South Bend, Ind.; Melbourne, Fla.; Newark, N.J.; Minneapolis and Lansing, Mich. Twenty-eight flights start or end at Newark Liberty International Airport. The carrier will add six more flights – from Toledo to Minneapolis – starting Aug. 14. The carrier is starting out with one leased Boeing 737-800, expects to add a second in the first month, and have as many as four by July of next year.
