By Mike GrassoAfter months of speculation, Skybus has decided to drop some of their longer-haul flights, including to the San Francisco Bay Area. Known for offering seats for as low as $10 on all flights, the airline is having difficulty operating certain routes in the midst of skyrocketing jet fuel prices.
From Oakland, the carrier operates a daily flight to its Columbus, Ohio hub.
