Services

The airline holds scheduled domestic and flag service authority^[3], but holds itself out as if a scheduled service product as "for professionals only" and its service as "professional class", aiming to offer all business accommodations on its planes at a non-first class price.^[4] The airline plans to target budget minded business travelers, with two-by-two seating, flexible meal service, laptop power, on-board Internet access, and other such premium services. The charter product is tailored to the charter or ACMI customer in the customer's defined configuration.

Expansion Plans

Scheduled Service Funding will determine actual timelines.

• 2007 routes: New York John F. Kennedy International Airport to Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and Atlanta
• Second Quarter, 2008 routes: New York to Denver, Dallas, and London
• Fourth Quarter, 2008 routes: New York to Manchester, Amsterdam, and Frankfurt

Due to lack of scheduled service funding Primaris Airlines remains a small charter airline. Interest in the mid level market remains high, with proof of concept being demonstrated by other niche market airlines in Europe.^{[citation needed]} 2007 (MMVII) is the current year, a common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar and the Anno Domini (common) era. ...
