Sky Bus Review

First ten seats are $10 each!
People, you read that right.  Sky Bus sells the first ten seats on each of its flights for $10!
But if you miss out on reserving one of those, it hardly matters.  The next level up is only $49.    Nearly everyone can afford a $98 roundtrip flight.  

How do they do that?  
The company's web site is easy to use, and the way they offer lower fares is by going into far less popular airports, which are still near major metroplexes.   Where I live, Southwest Florida International (at Fort Myers) is the place all the commercial carriers come in.   But Sky Bus lands 30 minutes up the interstate at Charlotte County Airport. Most travelers will drive an extra half hour to save a lot of money. 

Drive a Little, Save a Lot
The list of airports Sky Bus flies into is Who's Who of airports.you've never heard of.  Newburgh, NY for the NYC market.    Wilmington, Delaware for Philadelphia.  Gary, Indiana for Chicago.  And that's precisely why 10 seats on every flight cost $10.  If you're not in a huge hurry, or a time-is-money executive, Sky Bus offers a great alternative.

Libby's Hot Tip:  As with all low-cost carriers, Sky Bus flights do not come up on web sites like Expedia and Travelocity.  Go directly to the airline's web site to find your flights and compare costs to other airliens. 

NOTE IN NOVEMBER 08:  This carrier pulled out of my market just 3 months after coming in.  I don't know if it's even a viable concern.  It may have failed completely.........

The Bottom Line:  Libby Loved It!
