Cites problems securing landing, takeoff slots at Newark airport
NEWARK, New Jersey - A fledgling discount airline is having trouble getting off the ground.
Clearwater, Fla.-based JetAmerica issued a statement Thursday saying it's delaying the start of flight operations a month. It cited problems securing landing and takeoff slots at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey.
It's refunding about $500,000 in credit card purchases by more than 6,400 customers.
JetAmerica had planned to offer 34 flights a day starting July 13 to Newark and Minneapolis and to underserved airports in Melbourne, Florida; Toledo, Ohio; Lansing, Michigan; and South Bend, Indiana.
Its new projected start date is Aug. 14.
