How about Texas International on a DC9-10 to Vera Cruz, Mexico.

It then subsequently ordered and took delivery of new Boeing 737-200 equipment. However, it never commenced the planned new passenger service from Midway. Name the air carrier.
How about Midway-Southwest Airlines, which was a startup on paper only at the time. It was going to be a subsidiary of Southwest Airlines. The airline never came to fruition and the planes ordered eventually went to Southwest Airlines.
