They are running a shipping system with Houston as the hub, and carrying passengers on top. Flights arrive in Houston from many cities (including Portland) after midnight, and leave Houston for many cities about one hour later. Coach fare to or from Houston is $49. So, for example, Newark Airport (serving New York City) ->Houston->Portland = $98. First class is also very reasonable. You are allowed one carryon and one garment bag, but ***no*** baggage can be checked. There are modest advance-booking requirements, but no wierd excursion constraints. I don't know if they serve Canada.
