Hvornår gik pan am airlines bankerot?
1991
Pan American World Airways, oprindeligt grundlagt som Pan American Airways og almindeligvis kendt som Pan Am, var det vigtigste og største internationale luftfartsselskab i USA fra 1927 til dets sammenbrud den 4. december 1991. Det blev grundlagt i 1927 som en ruteflyvning med post og passagerer mellem Key West, Florida og Havana, Cuba. Flyselskabet er krediteret for mange innovationer, der har præget den internationale luftfartsindustri, herunder den udbredte brug af jetfly, jumbojetfly og computerbaserede reservationssystemer. Det var også et af de stiftende medlemmer af International Air Transport Association (IATA), den globale sammenslutning af luftfartsselskaber. Luftfartsselskabet var et kulturelt ikon i det 20. århundrede og blev identificeret ved sit logo med den blå globus ("The Blue Meatball"), brugen af ordet "Clipper" i flynavne og kaldesignaler og piloternes hvide uniformshuer. I en tid domineret af flagskibe, der var helt eller overvejende statsejede, var selskabet også USA's uofficielle udenlandske flagskibe. I det meste af jetæraen var Pan Am's flagskibsterminal Worldport i John F. Kennedy International Airport i New York City.
1991
Pan American World Airways, originally founded as Pan American Airways and commonly known as Pan Am, was the principal and largest international air carrier in the United States from 1927 until its collapse on December 4, 1991. Founded in 1927 as a scheduled air mail and passenger service operating between Key West, Florida and Havana, Cuba. The airline is credited for many innovations that shaped the international airline industry, including the widespread use of jet aircraft, jumbo jets, and computerized reservation systems. It was also a founding member of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the global airline industry association. Identified by its blue globe logo ("The Blue Meatball"), the use of the word "Clipper" in its aircraft names and call signs, and the white uniform caps of its pilots, the airline was a cultural icon of the 20th century. In an era dominated by flag carriers that were wholly or majority government-owned, it was also the unofficial overseas flag carrier of the United States. During most of the jet era, Pan Am's flagship terminal was the Worldport located at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City.
