Title: Family Airline.... Flying 747-400's Domestically from LAS
Post by: Seattle on February 06, 2008, 04:39:40 am

Has anyone herd of Family Airlines? They recently applied to the DOT to fly 747-400's in VERY HIGH density configurations on domestic routes..... like LAS-LAX is 19$ :lol: They expect 100% LF. I cant remember what the website adress is, but they have some rather interesting statements.

That video is wrong. It says you can fly to Honolulu at $89 but it says $99 in that box at the top.

sorry, but this somehow looks strange to me... are you sure this is a real airline? Might be one of the scams that pop up from time to time :?

I think it is going to be really hard to use 747's. Gas here has gone up to lik $150 per barrow.

They aren't going to get approved..... PERIOD.

The FAA will find an excuse: lack of appropriate financing, lack of technical know-how, etc.
