I am guessing the company name was Value Jet with the callsign of "critter".

Value Jet was not the original name of Air Tran.

Ignorance is a blessing...if she knew airtran's ORIGINAL name she would have really been scared.

I'm going to guess that this is just a sarcastic poke at the average idiot consumer's anxiety in knowing that their airline their flying on actually had a crash(!11omfg).

Much like the average idiot middle-aged housewife that brings her Dodge RAM 5.7L Hemi into Kauffman Tire and says, "Give me anything but Firestones".

Value Jet was not the original name of Air Tran.

I think that Value Jet bought Air Tran but kept the Air Tran name. So I guess Value Jet wasn't really the original name of Air Tran.

The original AirTran Airways, a Boeing 737 operator with service to/from Orlando, was founded by AirTran Corporation, the holding Company of Mesaba Airlines of Minneapolis, Minnesota, operating as a Northwest Airlink carrier with hubs in Minneapolis and Detroit.
