NO! NO! NO!
I just booked all my tickets for this Summer flying in the U.S.
Then I remember this airlines:
Flights were around $150 from coast-to-coast.. I bought another ticket on another airliner for the same price.. NO!!!!!
I'm kicking myself I could have flown on Hooters Air!
Here's a map so none of the rest of you make this same mistake!
(I booked already on the DC to Vegas route.. that would have been one hell of a lot of stopovers.. but damn that would have been just fine with me... considering the circumstances (and the price)! )
There are a lot of smaller airports.. but I guess thats why the airfares are so low as well! |

that map should have the destinations in white. so it looks like some intranational money shot. |

I think that "roper" from Ft.Lauderdale to Allentown is an eyeshot.
Poor allentown must be stinging. |

I went to school very close to Rockford and am having a hard time believing it has an airport capable of handling actual jet airplanes.
On an off-topic note, Rockford is often the location of stories in the Onion. |

Yeah, I kind of doubt the legitimacy of the ad as well.
If true this would be one dangerous airline to fly. I want the pilot of my plane to have 100% devotion to flying the damn thing. Not crash into the side of a mountain because he was distracted by some big knockers. |

I'm quite sure the company, at least, is legit. I read some news stories about it (about a year ago maybe) when it first opened.
I didn't know just anyone could buy a ticket though. I thought it was basically a charter service. So if you were ridiculously rich and were flying buddies to Vegas, or the superbowl or something, you could get Hooters airlines to do it.
Sooooo... I guess it could be a joke ad for the real service maybe? Who knows... If I wasn't so lazy I'd google it. |

How strange is that? An airline named after a restaurant famous for girls with big ones? |

Good point(s).
Just consider the mounds of information one has to digest. |

From the website:

Hooters Air has discontinued all flight on all routes but charters continue to be offered by Pace Airlines at 1-336-776-4100. |
I didn't think this was a business plan that was going to make it.
Proof that you fly a plane by working a big stick on your own, not by twirling knobs and pushing buttons. |
