so i guess "coffee, tea or ME" didn't really work out for them....

I think if the Hooter girls really made that offer it would of been wildly sucessful! :smile:

I also don't think they would of needed much coffee or tea, I sure would hope they started in my isle with the drink service though! Sloppy 50th's doesn't sound too good. :(
 
Did anyone here actually fly on it? It sounded like the worst idea ever when I heard about it. Think their execs spent too much time at their own bar thinking that one up.

I don't know anyone who flew on it.

Me and a bunch of guys went to Vegas last year, if it would of been competitive, I could see that being a lot of fun.

I also didn't think it would ever make it, but I have been wrong before.

HAHAHAHAHAHA ROTFLMAO
 
The company has a poor product to begin with. They have low standards on hires and the food quality is less than par. I could have told you this idea would bomb.

Their Hotel/Casino in Vegas wasn't too bad :)
 
I'm in agreement with everyone else. When I saw the ads for their airline I knew it was going to fail. On the otherhand, If they would have had a "Mile High" frequent flyer club they may have stayed in business. :wink:
 
I know people who bought tckets from Hooters, but were refunded before they made the trip. The fare was very resonable.
The problem with their failure is most likely in the timing to start a new flight business. It is way too competitive and the cost of fuel does not help.
I don't think the concept was a bad one.
But I always wondered what the Hooters girls do on the flight, because they have regular flight attendants as well.
 
Their ad looks good. I wonder how they were at parking their planes though?
