GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Give young aviation fans a wearable connection to Midwest Airlines and its Milwaukee roots. The story began with company air transportation in 1948 and grew into Midwest Express, whose first scheduled flights took off in 1984. Travelers came to remember the airline for roomy two-by-two seating, attentive service, and warm chocolate chip cookies. This youth hoodie keeps that distinctive chapter in view, from the Milwaukee hub years to the brand's transition into its successor, and suits fans of airline and local history.
Midwest Airlines grew from air transportation Kimberly-Clark arranged for its executives and engineers in 1948, connecting Neenah, Wisconsin, with company mills. After the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978, the company formed a scheduled passenger airline, and Midwest Express Airlines began flying on June 11, 1984, from Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport. Its early fleet included Douglas DC-9 jets, and its service became known for roomy two-by-two leather seating, meals, and warm chocolate chip cookies. The airline expanded across Midwestern and East Coast destinations, later adding West Coast and Florida service. In 1995 it opened an Omaha hub; in 2002 it shortened its name to Midwest Airlines and transferred hub status to Kansas City. TPG Capital and Northwest Airlines acquired its parent in 2008. Republic Airways Holdings acquired Midwest in 2009, and its independent flight operations ended that November. In April 2010, Republic announced that the Midwest and Frontier brands would merge under the Frontier name. Elements of Midwest's identity, including its cookie and slogan, carried into the successor brand.
