Midway Airlines (1976-1991) Toddler Tee / T-Shirt
Product Details & Size Guide
Share a little Chicago aviation history with this Midway Airlines toddler tee. The carrier began flying in 1979 and helped bring new life to Chicago Midway Airport, later changing course through low-fare routes, Metrolink business-class service, regional flights, and a wider hub network. Its short-lived story offers a fun talking point for families who love airplanes and airline history. A thoughtful choice for a young aviation fan or a family keepsake inspired by a distinctive Chicago brand.
Midway Airlines was a U.S. carrier based in Chicago, Illinois. Incorporated on October 13, 1976, it received federal operating certification before the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 and began flying on November 1, 1979. Its launch helped revive Chicago Midway Airport, which had been nearly deserted. The airline began as a low-fare, no-frills carrier serving Detroit, Cleveland and Kansas City, then tried all-business-class Metrolink service before becoming a conventional hub airline. It acquired Air Florida assets in 1984 and operated Midway Express before bringing that service under the Midway name in 1985. From the mid-1980s, it expanded its Chicago network and added regional service through Midway Commuter. In 1989, it bought Philadelphia gates and other assets from bankrupt Eastern Air Lines and opened a second hub there, but withdrew in 1990 amid mounting losses. Midway filed for Chapter 11 in March 1991. A proposed sale to Northwest Airlines fell through, and the original carrier ceased flying on November 13, 1991. Investors later bought its name and launched a separate airline in 1993; that successor ended operations in 2003.
