Start the day with a piece of airline history. This Northwest Orient Airlines coffee mug recognizes the brand used from 1947 to 1986, an era shaped by the carrier’s direct U.S.-Japan service and its expansive northern and Pacific network. Northwest’s story began with mail flying in 1926 and grew through Minneapolis-St. Paul, Detroit, Memphis, Seattle, Anchorage, and Tokyo. It is an easy daily favorite for aviation collectors and former passengers alike.
Northwest Airlines began as Northwest Airways on September 1, 1926, founded by Colonel Lewis Brittin and originally based in Detroit, Michigan. Its early work centered on U.S. Post Office mail flying, with passenger service beginning in 1927 and international service to Winnipeg beginning in 1928. Renamed Northwest Airlines in 1934, it developed a northern transcontinental route linking Chicago, Minneapolis and Seattle. After World War II, its experience flying routes to Alaska helped establish a major trans-Pacific role. On July 15, 1947, it began direct U.S.-Japan service via its Great Circle route and adopted Northwest Orient Airlines branding from 1947 to 1986. Northwest merged with Minneapolis-St. Paul-based Republic Airlines on October 1, 1986, adding hubs at Detroit, Memphis and Minneapolis-St. Paul. A strategic alliance with KLM began in 1993. Northwest and Delta Air Lines announced their merger in 2008; Delta retained its name and branding, ended use of the Northwest name for flights on January 31, 2010, and became the successor carrier.
