ANOTHER CONVENIENCE GONE

AirTran Airways, recently acquired by Southwest Airlines, will cease operating from Newport News/Williamsburg International Airport on March 9.
AirTran accounts for close to half the passenger traffic at Newport News, with nonstop service to Atlanta, Boston, Orlando and New York’s LaGuardia.
The economy, high fuel prices and AirTran’s performance in Newport News all contributed to the decision to leave, said Christopher White, AirTran spokesman

What did you expect Caribbean Airlines? Many are pulling out or decided not come here because of Newport News' high landing fees.
