About as funny as the callsign of your previous employer. A jet, linking to other jets.

Why was this thread even started if an official annoucement was never made?!?:rolleyes: We're not going back to the "Jet Connect" days at the Citrus.

I know, but at least XE used to fly B1900's, ATR's, and EMB 120's. At one point they were actually Turboprops connecting pax to jets.

It was Air Wisconsin and no, there is no deal for ANY regional operator to provide service for AirTran.

Not yet but I hear a SKW/AirTran (relatively small) deal is coming soon.

Air Tran is not a major airline.
