Skybus Receives FAA Certification

Skybus has received their FAA certification today. They will start service from KCI to Columbus on May 22 with 1 flight a day. They are a new low cost carrier that is modeled after Ryan Air in Europe. The thought here is to charge low fares (there is a $10 each way promo) and make money from food, travel insurance and other add-ons. I have a trip scheduled this summer and will definitely blog on my experience.
