Raise a glass to MetroJet, the short-lived low-cost airline division that brought a bold red, gray, and blue presence to late-1990s skies. Launched from Baltimore-Washington in 1998 with dedicated Boeing 737-200 service, MetroJet connected Northeast travelers with key Florida routes before its 2001 closure. This pint glass gives aviation collectors and airline-history fans a practical way to remember a distinctive US Airways chapter.
MetroJet was the low-cost airline brand operated as a wholly owned division of US Airways from 1998 to 2001. Following labor negotiations concluded in 1997, US Airways created the brand to address growing low-cost competition in the Northeastern United States. Service launched on June 1, 1998, from Baltimore-Washington International Airport to Cleveland, Providence, Fort Lauderdale, and Manchester. The operation used a single class of service and a dedicated Boeing 737-200 fleet, beginning with five aircraft in a red and gray fuselage design with a blue US Airways logo tail. Its network expanded over the next two years to include Washington Dulles International Airport and point-to-point routes, with Florida connections a focus. MetroJet participated in its parent airline's frequent-flyer program and systems. After the September 11 attacks, financial disruption and the extended closure of Washington National Airport contributed to the network's closure. US Airways announced the shutdown on September 24, 2001; the final MetroJet 737 was retired that December. The Baltimore hub had been inherited by US Airways through its earlier merger with Piedmont Airlines.

A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
