TWA Skyliner - March 1994

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

Today is the front page from the employee newsletter, the “TWA Skyliner”.  The big news?

They were bringing back the Polar Route:  LAX-CDG.  This was served with the first of the Boeing 767-300’s they purchased.  This particular one was from Condor.  (It was TWA #16103, tail # N691LF.  You can see a picture of it from airliners.net right here.)

Also in this issue:  Optimism about TWA’s Summer Schedule, including more international flights from JFK (59 today to 77 by June 1st) and more flights from STL (257 today to ‘more than 300′ by June 1st).  A lot of these increases were by reducing service at the infamous ATL hub from 57 down to 11 flights.

Also included is an article about a retired TWA pilot by the name of Captain Randy Kramer.  He spent his own time in the LAX Ambassador’s Club greeting passengers and in general, spreading goodwill.  Another example of how TWA’s people went ‘above and beyond’.

Enjoy!
