Thinking about the airlines that still operate the DC-9-10, here are some additional hints:
  • One of the connecting cities is in Mexico, which means a domestic Mexican flight, which means a Mexican airline out of MEX.
  • The flight from the Mexican connecting city has one intermediate stop enroute to Dallas where you’ll overnight.
  • From Dallas you’ll fly nonstop to the next connecting city. The flight from that city to Winnipeg has one intermediate stop.
  • We know that the first connecting point is MTY. Aeromexico and Midwest Express are not airlines of record. Northwest is involved at some point.
18- let's try this:
  1. Aero California MEX-MTY
  2. Continental MTY-IAH-DFW
  3. Midwest Express DFW-MKE
  4. Northwest MKE-MSP-YWG
