Lotsa money to be made there.

Probably not... with the number of dwindling rubes out there that are eilwilling to part with good money.

I know Caribbean sun is starting up operations with some 737's. They ceased operations so they could change the fleet sometime ago.

CPatterson, you are correct. They are seeking coverage until they get up and running. The idea is out there and seats are being sold, but no planes yet. I would say 1/8 of a maybe. Fli

To add some fuel to this fire:

Rumor is the group is in talks with the Apple Group about investing in USA 3000 Airlines (Apple's wholly owned subsidiary) and using that certificate to run the "New Eastern" as a joint operation/investment with Apple. Apple would use the "New Eastern" as its primary airline for Apple Vacations travel (as was the intent with USA 3000), providing around 30-40% traffic, and the investment group would get guaranteed revenue as well as have an established certificate, fleet and flight crews from which to start operations.

This is the rumor at USA 3000 fwiw.

Would this be a Part 380 operation much like Virgin America flys for Direct Air? or a complete takeover of the certificate?
