$521.90 is the least expensive that I found, and even Southwest is higher for this market. Sorry. Regards, Dan

How much do entry-level Skybus flight attendants make

How much do entry-level Skybus flight attendants make?
Specifically, I'm looking for information about Skybus employees working out of the Columbus, Ohio airport. Also, how much of their salary is expected to come from commission on sales?

Skybus is getting a horrible name in the industry. Paying their employees crap wages (I'm a pilot- most pilots hate Skybus with a passion because of this) is not a good approach. I wouldn't work there personally and would recommend giving it a second thought if I were you. As for your question though... I've heard one of the biggest complaints by customers is the constant barrage of sales attempts by FA's. I've also heard most aren't making great money on commission at all.

How much does it cost to get a Pilot's license in Columbus Ohio

How much does it cost to get a Pilot's license in Columbus Ohio?
Assuming I get a simulator on my computer and can perfect flight on that and also home-school my ground school. So my question is on top of that how much would it cost for me to be able to fly a) in clear skies b) cloudy skies. Also how long would this take, I am a fast learner.

A simulator on your computer is great for familiarizing yourself with various procedures, but you cannot log that experience toward a pilot rating unless it is an FAA approved training device and you receive dual instruction in it from a Certified Flight Instructor. Only a portion of the total flight time required to get your pilot ratings may be accomplished in a simulator. If you are a good student, it will take you about 100 hours to earn a Private Pilot license with an Instrument Rating (40-50 hours training for each). Of that, perhaps 1/4 could be done in a simulator. If you took a one hour lesson 5 days per week you could finish these two ratings in about 6 months. I've helped people get both ratings in as little as two months. The cost would be in the neighborhood $6,000-$7000 for the Private Pilot course and $7000 for the Instrument course at Capital City Aviation in Columbus.

I don't know who the idiot is that gave the thumbs down for my answer, but I know exactly what I'm talking about and you obviously don't. I do not participate in Yahoo Answers for the points, which are worthless, I do it because I like helping people out and I have the education, training and experience to fully back up my answers. Boo, hiss...

3 days
2 :
7.5 hours.
3 :
you will probably have a lay over in NY or some place like that but if it was non-stop I would think about 5 to 6 hours
4 :
26 hours
5 :
probably 2-3 hours. depends on wether u make any stops.
6 :
The most expensive price would be a 10 hour flight. There is lots of connections since Columbus isnt a city that flies out to Paris often, If you want something cheap, it takes about 18hours, tons of connections.

I am hearing the absolute craziest answers! Definitely not 3 days, and definitely not 2-3 hours. Not 7.5 hours, because that how long it takes to go from New York. It's definitely not 26 hours either. That's how long it took me to fly from New York to Sydney, Australia, 3X the length!! And 10 hours is probably the closest from the travel agent, but that is incorrect too, it does not take 2.5 hours to get from Columbus to New York. The real answer is approximately 8 hours 50 mins. to 9 hrs 10 min, if it is direct. Unfortunately, there are no direct flights, so your only option is with a connection in New York, Detroit, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Washington DC, Boston, Atlanta, Miami and other cities that have flight to Paris.
