Traveling doesn’t have to break the bank, especially with all the low-budget airlines around these days. Now, two new low-cost carriers are coming to America.
Though Europe has plenty of budget airlines, low-cost carriers haven’t flourished as much in the states. Until now. WBUR reported that a new airline called XTRA is set to launch in the U.S. and it will be selling seats for astonishingly low prices. XTRA’s fares could be in the low double digits for domestic flights, and they’ll also be offering super affordable international flights.

It’s headed by JetBlue founder David Neeleman and will also offer affordable flights in and out of both large and small airports, with a focus on serving so-called second-tier airports.

XTRA plans to have planes in the air by the end of 2019 and hopes to have a fleet of over 45 planes by the end of 2023. XTRA is still raising investor support, but the airline has received a strong level of interest from backers and expects to have funds in the bank and planes on the tarmac soon.
