From 13abc.com: http://abclocal.go.com/wtvg/story?section=news/local&id=6636736 Jet America scouting Toledo Express Low-cost airline would offer cheap trips and local jobs Monday February 02, 2009 | 11:46 AM Toledo is in the running to be the first base of operations for a new airline. Toledo Express airport is one of three airports in the running to become the hub of what's being described as an ultra-low fare airline. Jet America is the parent company launching this new airline, which has yet to be named. According to information we received today, it'll fly to 14 destinations in its first year with the average fare being $69 each way. Jet America is hoping those numbers will attract about 5.6 million potential customers in a 75-mile radius around Toledo. Jet America also says this new line will hire 950 workers in the first year, with an average salary of more than $48,000 per year. The company isn't specifying the other two airports being considered. What they are saying is that Jet America founders are meeting with business and community leaders in each city and whichever one demonstrates the most enthusiasm and support will get the job, so to speak.

This building along with an entire city block was destroyed by fire last night. It also includes the Kaminsky Jewelers photo.
