Eastern.
the brand exists
The first time I ever flew was when I was reporting to boot camp. The US Navy chose United Airlines for that trip. I was absolutely nervous.
Aer Lingus. Destination: Cork (Ireland)
CP Air.
I remember my brother and I got a cockpit tour and a set of plastic "junior pilot" wings.
TWA
Midway Airlines out of Midway Airport, Chicago back when they had their own airline. We got pb&jโs on a frisbee we got to keep. :). Things are a little different nowโฆ
JetBlue, IIRC. It was a flight from JFK Airport to Santiago de los Caballeros in the Dominican Republic.
I think it was TWA possibly American. I remember a few years later flying jet blu when it was new and it seemed so cool.
United. Twice. They damaged my luggage both times.
I've only flown Delta and American since then.
The first one ever was Lufthansa, the first one I flew with by myself was Korean Air
Asian Spirit RPLL to RPVE
I was 7 years old, it was a regional flight.
Air Canada! I was about 8 and members of the band Duran Duran were on the flight in first class. I said hi to them.
BA
First one I remember is Lufthansa as a kid. Back then I liked it but my recent experience with Lufthansa Economy or flying in general is horrible.
Weed Airlines
