Title explains all.

 

I'd say Pan Am to be honest.

What were EuroCeltic like?

A bit like Aer Arann between 2004 and 2010. Basically they crashed one plane and were robbed of €2M so they had to fold. When they folded, RE saw an opportunity. Interesting side note, they had an agreement to take on Aer Lingus F-50s, but folded so Cityjet got most of them.

Ansett.

They were Australia's second airline after Qantas. They went bust under Air New Zealand ownership. They were a member of the Star Alliance while Qantas was a founding member of One World.

 

Ansett were a direct rival to Qantas. When they went bust, Virgin had a regional airline called Virgin Blue who basically replaced Ansett in their terminals etc. VB became a low cost national carrier and competed with Qantas' low cost airline, Jet Star. Qantas therefore had no competition in Australia as a full service carrier. Virgin Blue has now rebranded as Virgin Australia and is a full service carrier to rival Qantas. They then bought shares in Tiger Airways Australia and positioned that to take on Jet Star. The only problem is Virgin Aus is not a star alliance member and so you can't use your miles/points to get to Australia without flying to New Zealand and then using them to fly from NZ to Australia. I'm not a fan of Virgin, don't like the branding or the look of the planes. (all white with virgin on the tail in red = boring). Plus virgin have Embrear aircraft on the Sydney to Melbourne route when Qantas use 737-800's and Jet Star use A320's.
