{"product_id":"champion-air-can-cooler","title":"Champion Air Can Cooler","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBring Champion Air history to a get-together with a can cooler inspired by a charter airline that served vacation travelers, sports teams, and government agencies. The carrier began as a successor to MGM Grand Air, adopted the Champion Air name in 1995, and made Boeing 727s central to its identity. Its story crossed from California roots to Minnesota operations before all flights ended in 2008. A conversation starter for airline collectors and anyone interested in the specialized side of passenger aviation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChampion Air grew out of MGM Grand Air, a California airline established in 1987 that began flying in September of that year. MGM Grand Air operated premium scheduled service between Los Angeles and New York, a shuttle between Los Angeles and Orange County, and charter flights. As business jets gained popularity, the airline became unprofitable. Minnesota tour operator Front Page Tours bought its air operator's certificate in July 1995, changed the name to Champion Air, and standardized the fleet on Boeing 727 aircraft. In March 1997, Minnesota Twins owner Carl Pohlad and Northwest Airlines acquired the company from Richard Page. Champion Air moved to Minneapolis and shared facilities and resources with Northwest, while becoming a leading charter provider for Northwest-owned MLT Vacations. MLT traffic represented about 75 to 80 percent of Champion Air's operations. Northwest planned to move those passengers to its own flights during 2008, and also took over a charter contract serving 13 National Basketball Association teams. On March 31, 2008, president and CEO Lee Steele announced voluntary liquidation. High fuel costs and the aging 727-200 fleet were cited among the reasons. All flights ended May 31, 2008.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eRegular Can\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eSlim Can\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eHeight, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e4.30\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e6.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eDiameter, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e3.50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e3.50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Durable 100% polyester exterior with edge-to-edge vibrant print\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Soft 100% foam liner for firm grip and insulation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Lightweight and slim — fits regular and slim cans\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Outside white polyester with black foam interior for contrast\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Available sizes: Regular (3.5\" x 4.3\") and Slim (3.5\" x 6'\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Wipe with a damp cloth, air dry or use a soft, non-abrasive cloth\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"Regular Can","offer_id":54667250368796,"sku":"19828488437293093363","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Slim Can","offer_id":54667250401564,"sku":"24548747105458137680","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/2517\/5580\/files\/14467323261851251086_2048.jpg?v=1791405156","url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/champion-air-can-cooler","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
