[edit] History

The airline ceased most flight operations in February 2006 and filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition on February 21, 2006, but the petition was not immediately accepted by the court and its status and effect are not clear at this time.[1]

As of January 3, 2007, most of the telephone numbers on their web site have “disconnected” recordings. The one number that answers with a Florida Coastal Airlines recording says they are not currently providing any service. Some of the Florida Coastal Airlines fleet is stored with and being maintained by Lynx Air International at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. It is believed that Lynx Air International will acquire the carrier from bankruptcy.[citation needed]

[edit] Fleet

FCA operated a fleet of 5 Cessna 402C aircraft.[citation needed]
