Another airline serving Hawaii suspended services today. American Trans Air, better known as ATA, "discontinued all operations" today after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on April 2, 2008.
The 35-year-old airline states that it is discontinuing services because it has lost a key contract for its military charter business.
ATA operated passenger services on the US mainland and Hawaii. A link on its website provides a list of other airlines that provide service to its destinations. The airline's shutdown will affect 2,200 employees.
