Now I have seen a lot of other players in the Airline Empires community create forums about their favorite/best/worst airlines out there, and I decided to why not make things a little more different. Even though the first flight I ever took in my life was back in 2003, there are some airlines that are no longer in service today that I do appreciate, despite I have never seen any of their actual aircraft in service.

 

So for this forum, I ask you all in the Airline Empires community, what is your favorite airline that is no longer in service as of today? Unfortunately, Eastern Airlines doesn't count, as they are currently back in service in Miami, FL, with a few 737-800s.

 

For me, it's hard to settle on just one. I actually have three favorites from the past, and these three had big names too here in the United States. Continental Airlines, Trans World Airlines (TWA for short,) and everyone's favorite, PAN AMERICAN AIRWAYS!!! It's not their liveries I was interested in, but more-so on what they have achieved in history that made them earn their names and being loved by the passengers in the era of when they were in service.
