“United Airlines said new luggage fees it has imposed on travelers will generate more than $100 million annually.”

Assuming people don’t tell them where to stick their luggage fee and fly on another airline instead.

They’re dropping like flies. Aloha, Champion Air, and now ATA.

I wonder what impact this will have on Mitch Daniels reelection campaign. ATA has provided military transportation from Fort Harrison when it and then from Camp Atterbury.

Indy is also building a new terminal, which is now more than 1/2 done. What will this do to that project?

I think they’ve been on the brink for awhile. They cut almost all their flights a few years ago. I am sure the Indy airport has been anticipating this for some time. In fact some airlines like Northwest and Airtran have added flights to replace old ATA flights to FL.

Southwest owns a stake in ATA. Prediction, SWA picks up the Hawaii routes and the ATA planes
