Summary

In November 2006, Island Airways advertised a $75 adult round-trip Thanksgiving fare for November 22–26 and a set of December winter-getaway packages. The latter combined Beaver Island flights with Boyne Mountain or Boyne Highlands lift tickets and Avalanche Bay waterpark access, Wednesday casino trips, or Traverse City Christmas shopping with a rental car.

Evidence limits

These are first-party promotional notices. They document what Island Airways offered publicly at the time, but not ticket sales, flight availability, passenger numbers, package fulfillment, or the commercial terms behind the offers.
