I thought of an airline that just flies you past the city you want to go to and you just jump when it's your stop.

And this is why idea guys get grief :P

Seriously though I can't even imagine the logistics behind that one. Even if only fit and healthy people used the service there's so much that would need accounting for - air pressure within the plane even if we ignore the whole people are jumping out of a commercial jet

a C130 does it without difficulty :)

* i never mentioned anything about commercial jets

May as well just let people off when you land to refuel then

refuel in the village or beach?

How do you get back home?

Skyhook / Fulton extract: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fulton_surface-to-air_recovery...

Needless to say, there are extra fees for carry-on bags.

either skyhook, like the other reply mentioned. or you find you nearest airport and get parachuted home.

the airline then pick the landing equipment back up via skyhook or drives to pick it up.
