How many different airlines have you been on?

Aviation Airlines
1

Include airlines that existed the day you traveled. For instance if you have been on Air Cal before the AA buyout and American more recently go ahead and include both. I realize PSA and PSA are two different airlines but include both if you have had that privilege. If you know the airline flying as one of the express carriers use that name, otherwise use what is written on the side of the fuselage.
I’ll start, in no particular order.

How’d you get on that World Airways flight? I thought that was a charter company.

Short history of World:

  • started out as a charter airline
  • operated a few schedule routes late 70’s and early 80’s
  • became all charter again

For a timetable of World from June 1980, go to damiross.net/airlines.html and scroll down until you see “World Airways” on the left.

A more detailed history can be found at Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Airways

How are Iceland Air’s 757s they fly to Denver now and I was just wondering how good they are. You were also verry lucky to catch a ride on a 200P!!! ie-(737-200)

9

I flew Icelandair YYZ → KEF → ARN → KEF → YYZ. I didn’t have anything to complain about except for the fact that the 757 seating got a little cramped on the trip westbound and for Denver it can only be farther. The IFE was pretty good, everyone has seat back TVs. Iceland is a beautiful country, I’m very glad I went after my conference in Stockholm.

Yes, the 737-200 was unforgettable - I was only 9 but I’ll never forget my first plane ride, it was from Toronto to St. Petersburg Florida for a March break vacation.

Some flights/airlines are long lost to memory. For instance, my first flight ever as a young lad was a DC-3 that my Dad and I flew from Columbus (OH) to Chicago. I clearly remember the flight but the airline? Not a chance!
I’ve also never had, or taken rather, the opportunity to fly across the pond. I’d love to do that sometime. And Iceland is high on my wish list. However, since you asked for lists, not reminiscences, here is my list…
