Today, I want to focus on People Express. The following questions are presumably easy to find via the internet, but please try to answer them without help from google/Wikipedia. I've also crafted them to be subjective, so they might not have "right" answers.
3. What was their flagship route?
4. Which airline absorbed them in the end and how did this deal affect the acquiring party in particular and the airline industry in general?
Many thanks to
moondog for stepping up to the plate with these great quiz questions!
3. I believe this was New York Newark - London Gatwick operated with a 747.
4. It was Continental. And the CO - PE merger resulted in Continental once again operating 747 equipment as well as CO operating a hub at Newark.
