Jump to postAir Tran's slow growth strategy appears to be working as they are chipping away at the big boys by gaining major market share in places like Boston, Orlando and Chicago. Long term I like Air Tran's strategy and focus more than Jet Blue's. Air Tran is putting itself in a position of strength in so ma...

Jump to postI remember Eastern dropped Miami-Point Pitre service in 1988, and don't recall a US airline flying there since.
Jump to postHopefully they can make this work since Delta Connection failed. Air Tran has started and then quickly stopped several similar type routes from FLL in recent years.
Jump to postNot that I know of. Kuwait City service to Dulles begins soon though, so that would be one new transatlantic route from IAD.
