Columbus, OH — [Insert Date] — Skybus Virtual is proud to announce the official launch of its Summer 2025 Network, a bold step forward in redefining virtual airline operations with enhanced connectivity, strategic growth, and a fresh fleet philosophy.

“This isn’t just another seasonal update,” said [Spokesperson Name], Director of Network Strategy at Skybus Virtual. “It’s a complete overhaul—one that reflects our commitment to building a modern, flexible, and engaging experience for our pilots and passengers alike.”

✈️ Key Highlights of the Summer ’25 Network:

  • Shorter Flight Times, More Connections:
    Average flight time has been reduced to 1 hour and 55 minutes, down from 2 hours and 38 minutes. This change shifts our network toward more regional and local connections—fewer red-eye trans-cons, and more flexible daily ops.

  • Expanded Hub System:
    With the introduction of Salt Lake City (SLC) and Oklahoma City (OKC) as new hubs—alongside the existing Columbus (CMH) hub—our network is now balanced across three strategic locations:

    • SLC: 21 routes

    • OKC: 20 routes

    • CMH: 19 routes

  • Fleet-Dependent Scheduling:
    For the first time, routes are now tied directly to specific aircraft types. The A319 fleet, for instance, services select destinations exclusively—ensuring realistic aircraft assignments and operational integrity.

  • New Horizons:
    The Summer ’25 Network introduces several new airports, classic destinations, and even a new country:
    Welcome to the network, Canada!

🛫 Looking Ahead: The Boeing Era Begins

While the Summer ’25 launch marks a milestone, it’s only the beginning. Skybus Virtual is preparing for the rollout of Sunwest, which will inject a fleet of Boeing aircraft and dozens of new routes into our operations.

“If this is the shakeup,” said President and CEO Jamal Pratt, “what’s coming next will be a seismic shift.”
