Stewart Airport — For the second time in a month, there were balloons in the terminal.
For the second time in a month, there was coffee and Danish for all.
For the second time in a month, there was a radio station and photographers and a big crowd on hand.
And, for the second time in a month, a big-name airline has come to Stewart International Airport. Yesterday, it was AirTran Airways, the follow-up to JetBlue in the 1-2 combo of major discount carriers that Stewart believes will bring credibility, lower fares and loads more traffic to the long-struggling airport.
They're coming in with five daily flights, two to Atlanta and one each to Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando and Tampa, Fla. And if those flights do well, they'll add more, said John Kirby, AirTran's director of strategic planning.
