Skybus Is Set to Fly!

Well to no avail Skybus announced their initial destinations today; and as you could have guessed, Youngstown-Warren was not on there. Alright, I don’t think anyone really expected us to be on there, considering they are brand new and all of their initial flights fly into Columbus before going elsewhere. Skybus looks to have a great new website which advertises $10 FARES!
I don’t care if they make you pay for everything on the flight and they make you throw away your food/drinks before entering the plane; for $10 fares, it’s worth it! Just imagine the high number of fliers out there who want to experience something new by flying for such a cheap price! Hell, I would; and I am sure you would too.
In the next 18 months Skybus will expand to a 65 plane A-319 Fleet; which will allow tons of new destinations to be added to the Skybus route map; and its NECESSARY for Youngstown to be one of them. As you can note on their website today, 4 , count em 4, Allegiant Air cities are of the initial 10 for Skybus; 2 of which are known for the larger city nearby. It’s evident they want to work like Allegiant hitting smaller markets, and you can bet that CAK and YNG will be in the running for this airline in the next 12-18 months. Who knows if the YNG Management is even aware of Skybus, but it’s up to us to inform them! So email Bowser up at the airport here: sbowser@yngairport.com
All I can ask you guys to do on this blog is to email Skybus here: bob.tenenbaum@skybus.com
and tell them that you want Skybus in Youngstown. The more emails they receive, the more they will take note that this community wants their carrier!
THANKS, And we can make this work. SCASD still not up yet, although the deadline is this Friday. And a new Fly Youngstown website is in creations. We promise to make it BETTER than the current official YNG-Airport site.

i just wanted to say first of all I LOVE THE NEW BACKROUND!! and for skybus I saw their site too and was impressed with their fares and skybus seem’s like it will make flying enjoyable. I like that you only pay if you check bags I agree why should I pay for everyones bags when I only carryon?? and their choice of planes airbus A-319’s are reliable aircraft! and I look forward to flying with Skybus! and WE NEED SKYBUS HERE!! YNG, id be happy with them flying to columbus from here at least you can connect to many,many many other cities they have to offer! thanks for the time!
I wrote my letters and hope that we can all work together to bring Skybus or other airlines to YNG. We need more service…
i just wanted to add, I know you guys are looking for new service. SO has anyone heard that expressjet has partly broken away from COA? its true and infact they have started their own airline! using 69 ERJ-145XLR jets. currently they serve 24 cities and the good news for YNG?? they currently do not serve any airport in ohio or PA. heres the website YNG i’m sure this will interest you! http://www.xjet.com check it out and letme know what you guys think thanks!
As much as I want daily flights, we won’t get them until we get more flights with LCC. Please continue emailing Steve Bowser!!!! The more he hears from us, the more he knows we want progress!!!!!
WE CAN DO IT.
