Mark a distinctive chapter in airline history with this AirTran JetConnect ceramic ornament. The regional service launched from Atlanta in November 2002, flying CRJ200 jets in AirTran livery to smaller eastern markets. Its first destinations included Greensboro, Pensacola, and Savannah, and the network eventually served 18 cities. The final regional jet flight came in August 2004, after AirTran decided its Boeing 717 could operate the routes more efficiently. A keepsake for aviation collections and seasonal displays.
AirTran JetConnect was the regional service brand of AirTran Airways, operating from the airline’s Atlanta hub. Announced on September 26, 2002, it began flying on November 15, initially serving Greensboro, Pensacola, and Savannah before expanding to 18 cities across the eastern United States. Regional carrier Air Wisconsin operated ten Bombardier CRJ200 jets in AirTran livery, with JetConnect branding beside the AirTran logo. The flights served shorter routes where AirTran considered its Boeing 717 and Airbus A320 aircraft too large to operate economically. On March 5, 2004, AirTran announced the service would end, concluding regional jet operations in August. AirTran’s analysis found it could operate the Boeing 717 more efficiently on those routes. Air Wisconsin returned the jets to the United Express fleet; they were later repainted in US Airways colors, and the carrier operated under the US Airways Express banner. Following the US Airways merger with American Airlines, Air Wisconsin operated as an American Eagle regional air carrier. AirTran later resumed regional service from Milwaukee in December 2009 with SkyWest Airlines, but without the JetConnect brand; that operation ended in September 2011.
