For young aviation fans, this SkyValue youth hoodie recalls a real airline with a brief and memorable winter season. Service began from Gary, Indiana, on December 15, 2006, and was scheduled to end on May 6, 2007. The company announced that it might consider returning for another season, but its aircraft lease later expired in April 2008. The story connects a changing airline schedule with the history of a community airport and its travelers.
SkyValue, formally known as SkyValue USA, was a seasonal American low-cost airline headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. On October 13, 2006, the company announced plans to begin service that December from Gary/Chicago International Airport in Gary, Indiana, using Boeing 737-800 aircraft. Its only operating season ran from December 15, 2006, through April 2007, with five daily flights planned to five sunny destinations. The airline operated as a scheduled charter service, with aircraft wet leased from Xtra Airways. Its winter service carried more than 10,000 passengers, and the article reports that this made possible federal grants supporting the cost and expansion of Gary Airport as a potential third Chicago-area airport. Mesa, Arizona, in the Phoenix area, became the airline's most popular destination and received an added third weekly flight. On April 27, 2007, the CEO announced that service to all destinations would end as planned on May 6, while the company would consider returning for the next season. On April 23, the original 737-800 was returned and replaced with a smaller 737-400 configured with business and economy seating. The optioned year-long lease on that aircraft expired in April 2008.
