A special charter flight is turning back the clock to honour the legacy of Pan American World Airways, one of the most iconic names in aviation history. Aviation enthusiasts, collectors, and former employees recently boarded a retro-themed transatlantic flight designed to replicate the golden age of air travel. The journey, dubbed “Tracing the Transatlantic,” recreated the original Pan Am experience—complete with vintage uniforms, period-inspired menus, and classic in-flight service. From boarding procedures to the cabin design, every detail aimed to capture the spirit of the mid-20th century skies. The flight not only paid tribute to Pan Am’s pioneering role in global aviation but also celebrated the culture and glamour that once defined long-haul air travel. For many onboard, it was more than a flight—it was a living tribute to a timeless chapter in aviation history.
