Call it a gut feeling, but I'm going to go with Allegheny Airlines on this one, with a DC-9-30


13. Identify the airline that ran this print ad:
"Introducing the new DC-9-50....We call it the comfort cabin. Because the DC-9-50 has a spacious new look and feel from front to back."

This also sounds like Allegheny. I did two separate Unlimited Mileage fares and flew a lot of these birds.
9. Yep, we are indeed talking about the DC9-30 here. However, the airline in question wasn't Allegheny so please guess again, sir!

13. Correct! Here's the Allegheny print ad....
