Q
- What is the one-frill?
A - Air
Gumbo will be the world's first "one-frill" airline
and its "one-frill" will be a unique cultural
experience you can not get on any other airline.
Q
- Some people mistakely call your company "Gumbo
Air," will gumboair.com lead one to your
low fare?
A - Yes,
Air Gumbo owns the domain name "gumboair.com" which
will redirect traffic to airgumbo.com.
Q
- Will
Air Gumbo serve its gumbo meal on all flights?
A - All
tickets purchased on Air Gumbo for travel will come with
a gumbo meal. On flights that are less than one
hour in duration,
Air Gumbo will not have onboard meal service. Air Gumbo
will provide the Gumbo Lunchbox®, our take-out
service on short flights, to those passengers who
claim their meal.
Passengers may be required to waive liability on the
take-out service.
Q - Will Air Gumbo serve other world famous Cajun and Creole cuisine?
A -Yes, Air Gumbo will offer other meals such as Crawfish Etouffée and Jambalaya as well as exotic gumbos, subject to seasonal availability, such as alligator, vension, rabbit, duck, turkey, etc., or totally organic variations. However, passengers can expect to pay a premium for the enhanced meal service.
Q - With the
Boyd Group's publicized light-hearted concern for
heartburn, will Air Gumbo offer meals that are very
spicy? (See www.aviationplanning.com/asrc1.htm and
scroll down to the 1/16/06 Hot Flash)
A - Air Gumbo will give customers the choice
to tailor the spiciness of their meal to their preference
upon purchasing tickets.
Q -
With the famous hot coffee legal suit on some domestic
travelers' minds, will Air Gumbo serve hot meals?
A - Like most international airlines and
unlike all U.S. domestic low cost carriers, Air Gumbo
will serve warm meals on board. The warm and reasonable
temperature of our meals is like the meal service most
international airlines have been offering for many
years.
Q - When will Air Gumbo launch its airline service?
A -We
are building Air Gumbo from the ground up. It involves
a two-part process: first the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT) must approve Air Gumbo's economic fitness, then,
the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) must approve
the safety of Air Gumbo's airline operations and aircraft.
These rigorous processes can take six months to a year
to complete. Air Gumbo plans to work closely and efficiently
with the DOT and the FAA during this rigorous process.
We are excited about bringing Louisiana's culture to
the sky and will keep you informed.
Q - Is that the CRJ I see pictured on your site?
A - Yes, photos are courtesy of Bombardier Aerospace. Thank you, Bombardier!
