Independence Air Goes Out of Business

Thursday, January 5, 2006 will mark the last flight ever in the history of Independence Air, wrote the Washington Post today. Independence Air’s parent company, Flyi has been operating in Chapter 11 for some time and the move is hardly a surprise.

Under Federal Law and those who hold IA tickets for after January 5th can get tickets on other airlines that fly those routes for $50 each way. Passengers must book these tickets by Monday, March 6, 2006. Frequent flier miles holders can take their claims up with the bankruptcy court.
