Today it was announced that there will (hopefully) be a new airline starting up in Pittsburgh. So new there is not even a name for the airline yet. I believe it is called "Project Roam". Anyway the airline hopes to be flying to 9 cities sometime next year, and then to 39 cities within 5 years. Their fares will start out at $49 one way for shorter trips and $99 dollars for the longest trips. They will only be flying new 737 - 700's in their fleet in order to keep maintenance costs down. Of course everyone fully expects US air and all the others in PIT to lower fares to compete and snuff the competition out. Have to see what happens. If Us air leaves, looks like we could see the makings of a brand new airline that would most likely be successful because of no hub in PIT. Here is a link Click here . I think it is kinda cool to see a new potential airline in the making. Hopefully everything works out. What do all of you think about this.
