LINCOLN- On Tuesday, Red Way Airlines, a recent addition to Lincoln's ever-expanding airport, announced that it will pull the plug on three of its original destinations: Austin, Atlanta, and Minneapolis. The leisure air carrier, which began flying out of Lincoln's airport in June, will hold its final flights to these destinations on August 5th. Those air travel markets, according to Red Way CEO Nick Wangler, "unfortunately don't make sense to continue."

Wangler said he was saddened to have to cancel those flight paths, but that he also understood that such decisions would have to be made as Red Way eases into Lincoln's airport system. "I'm more disappointed in myself that we picked a couple of markets that ultimately didn't work," he said, adding that those flight paths likely won't come back any time soon.

Since announcing that it would make the Lincoln Airport its home in March, Red Way has sold more than 36,000 tickets and has exceeded expectations in markets like Dallas and Nashville. Recent market additions, like Tampa and Phoenix, have been successful as well for Red Way, according to Wangler. "We have a bunch of flights that are working incredibly well," said Wangler, "There's a lot of good stuff coming."
