Pan American Airways (Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson) has signed a Letter of Intent with an undisclosed lessor for the delivery of B737-800s ahead of the carrier's planned summer launch.
In a press release, the start-up said a Purchase Agreement would be signed once the aircraft begin arriving. Pan American intends to deploy the twinjets on flights within southern tier US markets.
It will shortly embark on a crew-recruitment drive.
PanAm is the latest start-up to attempt to revive the glory days of now defunct US carriers alongside Eastern Air Lines (2009) (Miami International) and PEOPLExpress (Newport News).
