Virgin America Pushing First Chicago Flights To 2009
Earlier this year, Virgin America announced its intentions to start service to Chicago, potentially before the end of this year if the FAA was game. And now that O'Hare will open a new runway and lift flight caps in the next three weeks, it seems like we should be flying VA to ORD any day now.
But the airline, which is burning through money while expanding service to other cities, has pushed back its Chicago debut, says USA Today:
Virgin America now hopes to launch service to Chicago O'Hare in early 2009, though the carrier does not have a firm date targeted for the beginning of that service.
The problem, it seems, is finding gate space at the airport. Probably because they're insisting on something near the disco!
