US Airways
history
1939- All American Aviation brings the first airmail service to many small
western Pennsylvania and Ohio Valley communities with introduction of a unique
"flying post office" service.
1949- All American Aviation becomes All American Airways and makes the
transition from airmail to passenger service with introduction of the DC-3 and
an expansion of its service. Pacific Southwest Airlines begins operations with
service in California.
1953- All American's route system grows and the name is changed to Allegheny
Airlines, recognizing the mountains and river of the same name that lie in the
heart of the airline's network.
1979- Allegheny changes its name to USAir to reflect its expanding network,
including post-deregulation entry into Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Florida and
later, California.
1990- USAir expands its international flying with service between Pittsburgh and
Frankfurt, Germany, complementing existing Charlotte-London service begun in
1987 by Piedmont; and in 1991, international expansion continues with the
introduction of new non-stops between Charlotte and Frankfurt.
1997- The name US Airways is put into use officially.
2003- US Airways begins implementation of a code-sharing agreement with
United Airlines, introducing customers of both airlines to more than 3,000
code-share flight segments in the first half of the year, reciprocal airport
club usage, and simplified ticketing and baggage procedures. Midway Airlines
joins the US Airways Express ten-carrier network, bringing expanded regional jet
service to destinations such as Jacksonville, Fla., and Myrtle Beach S.C. US
Airways launches service in May between Philadelphia and both Dublin and
Shannon, Ireland, the airline's ninth and tenth European destinations.
