Add an aviation-history touch to your golf game with these Northeastern International Airways golf balls. Founded by Stephen Quinto, the airline started scheduled service in 1982 between Long Island and Fort Lauderdale, then grew into a network spanning seventeen cities in ten states by summer 1984. DC-8s, Boeing 727s, and Airbus A300s served routes shaped by ambitious expansion and shifting fortunes. This collectible-themed choice connects a day on the course with the story of a brief, wide-ranging chapter in U.S. airline history.

Founded by Stephen Quinto, Northeastern International Airways began operations on February 11, 1982, with a Douglas DC-8 flight between Long Island MacArthur Airport in Islip, New York, and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport in Florida. Based in Fort Lauderdale, the low-fare carrier expanded quickly: by the end of 1983 it served eleven cities in eight states, using Boeing 727s and DC-8s. In 1984 it added Airbus A300 widebodies and operated routes linking northeastern and Florida cities with destinations including New Orleans and Los Angeles. That summer its network reached seventeen cities in ten states, and New Orleans served as a small hub. Rapid growth proved unprofitable. After an attempted lease of ten Boeing 727s from bankrupt Braniff International Airways was blocked in December 1984, Northeastern cut routes and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on January 8, 1985. Three aircraft were repossessed in March. JEI Airlines acquired the downsized carrier in August 1985, when it served New York, Philadelphia, St. Petersburg and Fort Lauderdale. The company was liquidated in 1986, ending a brief but wide-ranging chapter in U.S. airline history.
