Comair
Let us get this out of the way – this is not the airline operating out of South Africa! The American Comair had been in business from 1977 until 2012. It had hubs in Cincinnati, New York City, and Orlando. Even though the company was a Delta Airlines subsidiary, the parent company did not seem all that worried about the way it turned out. There is a reason for its lack of concern when Comair folded in 2012. The truth is that this airline company only made up one percent of the network capacity of Delta. “There will be no disruption to customers and no significant adjustments to Delta’s flight schedule or locations served,” the parent company promised through its statement.

Direct Air
It is pretty sad to hear that Direct Air had only been in the industry for five years before it crashed. This charter airline served small cities that big airlines do not usually serve in the East, South, and Midwest, according to Associated Press. Could it be that there was not enough business there to keep it going? It canceled its services all of a sudden in 2012. Stranded customers at the time had been concerned for a good reason. Unlike regularly scheduled airlines, consumer protection laws do not cover public charter airlines! At any rate, Direct Air was only in the game from 2007 to 2012.
