Airline scraps plans for Teterboro service TETERBORO, N.J. (AP) =97 An airline has agreed to drop plans to provide=20 regular service between Teterboro (N.J.) Airport and Chicago, Gov. James E.= =20 McGreevey said Saturday. Chicago-based Indigo Airlines planned to begin the= =20 service Monday. It intended to offer four daily flights using a new fleet=20 of 16-seat Embraer jets. The move by Indigo came after McGreevey announced= =20 Friday that he had directed the state attorney general's office to support= =20 the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey in enforcing the agency's ban= =20 on regularly scheduled service at Teterboro Airport. Residents near the=20 airport also opposed Indigo's plan. "This is a great victory for the people= =20 who live, work and learn near Teterboro Airport," the governor said.=20 McGreevey said the Port Authority will work with Indigo to explore the=20 possibility of moving its operations to another facility. An Indigo spokesman said the airline only intended to run charter service=20 to Teterboro as it is permitted to do under its federal license. "The=20 governor is correct in saying we will not provide scheduled service because= =20 we never have and never will," Andy Lavin said. Indigo and the Port=20 Authority had clashed before about the regular scheduling of flights from=20 Teterboro, which has repeatedly drawn complaints of noise from residents in= =20 Bergen County. Indigo was prevented from regularly scheduling what the=20 airline referred to as "charter" flights in 2001, after U.S. Rep. Steve=20 Rothman urged the agency not to permit them. *************************************************** The owner of Roger's Trinbago Site/TnTisland.com Roj (Roger James) escape email mailto:ejames@escape.ca Trinbago site: www.tntisland.com Carib Brass Ctn site www.tntisland.com/caribbeanbrassconnection/ Steel Expressions www.mts.net/~ejames/se/ Site of the Week: http://www.dbombo.net/muddyangels/ TnT Webdirectory: http://search.co.tt *********************************************************
