Let me stress again as a public charter Direct Air has to esgrow monies from ticket sales, so these monies should be safe. Monies for vouchers and club membership went right into their general operating account. These guys had to know that cash was running low, so low that they could not pay for fuel, but they keep selling worthless memberships? This has to be criminal!! There business practices the past two months was nothing less then one last "grab for cash"!
CALL ALLEGIANT AIRLINES!!!!!

We're going to Orlando in October. I considered flying out of ORH but ultimately, decided that I couldn't be sure that Direct Air would be up to the task with 2 small kids - I wasn't even considering that they might not be around at all, just that their reputation was subpar.
Thanks Bill for keeping us updated on what these characters are doing.
Makes me wonder if any small local oil companies may be hurting after due to lack of volume this warm winter, even those that havent pre sold oil delivery at a fixed price per gallon for winter delivery.
Bill call Martha Croakley as he just loves this kinda stuff. Get her mug in the T&G.
Exactly Jahn
THink about here. Here they are selling vouchers for tickets at a ridiculously low price and the price of fuel explodes.
Recipe for disaster. No different then locking an oil company in at a low price and the price of oil takes off. The oil company goes out of business.
