April 5, 2008 - Skybus Airlines April 2, 2008 - ATA Airlines March 31, 2008 - Aloha Airlines Your list is missing a couple: Big Sky Airlines Champion Air (Charter) And soon to shut down: - Midwest subsidiary - Skyway Airlines - Mesa subsidiary - Air Midwest. I seem to recall that Midwest merely awarded a contract to someone other than Skyway Skyway is shutting down its flight operations as Midwest awarded its commuter contract to Skywest Airlines (St. George, Utah). skywest also operates commuter services for United (United Express) and Delta. They fly CRJ's. Mesa is shutting down Air Midwest as they are eliminating Beech 1900 equipment as not economical for their operations. |

I'm gonna say Frontier Airlines, and maybe Allegiant, Sun Country, and/or Spirit. |
