Hooters Air officials are not saying whether they will return to Nassau and three other cities where flights were suspended in December and January for “seasonal adjustments.”<\/P><\/p>\n
The airline’s Web site has not been taking reservations for flights from the Nassau International Airport for about a month, though it was taking March reservations when the flight suspensions were originally announced in December.<\/P><\/p>\n
Hooters Air also is not taking reservations from Gary, Indiana; Chicago, Illinois; and Las Vegas, which suffered flight suspensions at the same time.<\/P><\/p>\n
Hooters Air officials did not return repeated calls Monday for information on the possible resumption of flights.<\/P><\/p>\n
Gary, Indiana Airport Director Paul Karas said he was told by Hooters Air president Mark Peterson on Friday that the airline still is sorting through scheduling arrangements.<\/P><\/p>\n
“As far as we are told, it’s status quo right now and they are still deliberating,” Karas said Monday. “If they restart, we will take that as a positive.”<\/P><\/p>\n
Among arrangements the airline is looking at are tour packages to Las Vegas, Karas added.<\/P><\/p>\n
The regularly scheduled flights went to Myrtle Beach, S.C., St. Petersburg, Fla., Nassau and Las Vegas. The airline announced Dec. 19 those flights would be suspended from Jan. 9 until March.<\/P><\/p>\n
The ending of the last Hooters flights Jan. 9 left the airport with no regularly scheduled passenger airline service.<\/P><\/p>\n
Hooters also ended all service from the Greater Rockford Airport in Illinois on Jan. 5.<\/P><\/p>\n
