"Pogo will begin service next year with a new class of six-seat minijets flying from North Carolina to Maine. The jets will fly point-to-point among the nation's largely underused 5,400 smaller airports, situated within a half hour's drive of 93% of Americans. These airports are free of the aggravating congestion of the 50 largest domestic hubs, through which 90% of travelers pass. 'There're no ticket counters, no terminals and no baggage handlers,' says Crandall, 68, who still chain-smokes his cigarettes down to the filter. 'You drive up to the airport minutes before your flight, the pilot loads your bag and away you go.'"
