The POGO (www.flypogo.com) idea is a simple one. Fly people quickly, conveniently and safely from where they are, to where they want to go. Around their schedules. And do it at a price that puts that ease and freedom within the reach of the most people possible.

To make this happen, some important pieces had to come together.

The People

Heading up POGO is one of the aviation industry's most recognized innovators, Chairman and CEO Robert Crandall, former CEO of American Airlines. While at American Airlines, Bob led the development of the SABRE reservation system and implemented the industry's first frequent flyer program. Joining Bob is a talented team with experience in aviation, information technology, and finance.

The Planes

POGO will fly an entirely new fleet of next-generation aircraft piloted and serviced by carefully and professionally trained crews. These exciting new planes will offer an unprecedented level of performance, safety, and value.

The Airports

By taking advantage of the over 5,000 small- to medium-sized airports all around the country, POGO will offer the simplicity of traveling from where you are to where you want to go. (Instead of having to fly from one big airport to another big airport, perhaps stopping at yet another big airport in between.) These underutilized airports bring many other welcome benefits, such as the ease of parking steps away from your plane and being able to avoid long lines and scheduling headaches.
