AirTran Leaving Newark
Aug 13, 2009
AirTran, swapping slots with Continental, will leave Newark Airport after more than a decade of service there and add more flights and service at New York LaGuardia and Washington National instead.
The slot swap is not nearly as big as the one involving Delta and US Airways. According to an official familiar with the slot situation at the airports involved, AirTran is giving Continental 10 slots at Newark in exchange for four Continental slots at LaGuardia and six at National.
