Bump

I just got a call from them about flying their 145s. There's zero information about them. Im looking for anything about them. Schedule mostly, but anything else helps, starting pay is about 60k for captain with Bases in Atlantic City, Laughlin and North Carolina.

Sounds like it will be a ESL airline.

Via Air is owned and operated by Charter Air Transport (Callsign: Stingray). Good luck to those interested.

Probably not. The old Comair birds that this company bought were refurbished and sold overseas, Africa I think. The ones you see in CLT are Sky West and ASA airplanes.

With those bases, it sounds like they are taking over the Harrah's Casino charters that Republic is doing with 190s. Republic's contract is supposed to end this summer.

They've been doing casino charters in ACY 5-6 days a week since 2007. I am sure the addition of E145's is to capitalize on the growing 50 seat jet charter market.

Got a little more info, sounds like tey are doing 6 on 6 off. Pay for captain is about industry standard for a 50 seat jet, starts at 60k.They have picked up some EAS contracts and are in the process of building their 121 cert. Any one have any insight to their QOL? Im assuming they're not CASS.

They have a ticket counter in CLT.

Sounds like this company will be picking up where lakes leaves off when they inevitably go under by winter. A airline that is nothing but EAS routes. Buyer beware.

It makes you wonder just who is advising these investors.
