From the PR Newswires:
"Independence Air Announces Non-Stop Low-Fare Service From Washington Dulles to Orlando and Tampa Aboard New Airbus A319s; Also, Non-Stop Service to BOTH Orlando and Tampa from Six Other Cities: Knoxville, Greensboro, Huntsville, Greenville/Spartanburg, Columbia and Charleston, SC"
Isn't this some of the opening salvos of direct LCC competition? Independent Air serving non stop routes throughout the east coast to Orlando with 319's, home of Airtran, or does Airtran have all of the markets in the SE that they want and are moving west? We definitely live in interesting times. It's like back in the 70's when Trailways started getting on Greyhound's turf.
