$10 flights on Skybus

[mikea]

For the cost of a burger and beer, I bought an airline ticket.

That's right. I flew 667 miles, and it cost me only $10.

I am always looking for a good travel deal, and when I heard about Skybus Airlines, which offers at least 10 seats on each of its flights for $10, I went online and booked a ticket.

Think they pay the crew, or do they find pilots who'll fly for free or will pay the airline for the time?

Heck, I'd pay 'em an extra $50 if they let me have even the right seat for an hour.

Sounds like Spirit Airlines. They just had an eight cent sale. Tickets for eight cents, some for eight bucks. Lots of strings attached and hidden charges.
