10 seats per flight at $10. Others normal fair.

That’s basically it. Skybus is using the Ryanair business model - sell some tickets dirt cheap, others for a little more, and a few for full price. All tickets are fully non-refundable, so when you show up late - you lose your money and have to pay full fare. When you show up early - you can’t get on the earlier flight without paying full fare.

Nickle and dime customers by charging for everything else - advance seat assignments, food, drinks, bottled water, checked baggage - everything short of using the bathroom. Put advertising on the planes, on the tray tables - everywhere. Fly to cheaper airports, sometimes far from the “city” that you supposedly serve.

Spirit Airlines is already going down that avenue. This model works in Europe, but there is far less competition there than here in most places.
