Vision Airlines Offers Cheap Flights; Big News

For those who fly, Vision Airlines is a reason to get excited! This week this relatively new airline started selling cheap flights for the first of its new flights into and out of Florida. These cheap flights encompass 20 U.S. cities and will start flying on March 25, 2011.

Some airfares will initially be as low as $49 one way. The flights will be out of a number of Florida cities including St. Petersburg, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Orlando, Destin/Ft. Walton, and Fort Lauderdale. Destination cities include Baton Rouge, Knoxville, Tenn., and Little Rock.

David Meers, COO of Vision Airlines, says that low fares, non-stop service, and large jets - perks more often enjoyed by fliers through major hubs, will be key. "We'll be flying from cities that have been neglected by large carriers with large aircraft for a number of years," Meers says.

Vision Airlines was started in 1994. They began by giving tours of the Grand Canyon in small planes. They grew and developed into a charter service for celebrities, among others.

In the next 60 days, vacation packages should be available on www.visionairlines.com. Meers says that in the next 3 years, "It's realistic to expect we'd add cities out West... and we'll look at the Caribbean and Mexico."

Hopefully Vision Airlines will succeed with it's cheap airfares and will continue to expand in the future. Commercial passengers could certainly use a break as far as airfare prices are concerned.
