Pride Air entered the airline business with an ambitious plan to make New Orleans a hub linking California and Florida. The company began flying on August 1, 1985, backed in part by former Continental employees who helped raise $15.5 million. Competition and cash-flow problems led to suspended flights that November, followed by a Chapter 11 filing in December. These golf balls connect a day on the course with the story of a brief, independent airline whose bold route plans capture the risks of the 1980s aviation landscape.
Pride Air was a United States airline founded by Paul Eckel, a former chief pilot for Continental Airlines. Eckel served as chairman and chief executive and hoped to build an employee-owned, low-cost airline based in New Orleans. Many early investors were former Continental employees, who raised $15.5 million to launch the venture. The company selected New Orleans International Airport (MSY) as its hub because no airline then dominated the airport. Kansas City was considered as an alternative, but Pride Air reconsidered after Eastern Airlines expanded service there. Flights began on August 1, 1985. The business plan centered on linking cities in California and Florida through New Orleans, with Denver, Las Vegas, and Salt Lake City also on the proposed network. Although conceived as a low-cost operation, the airline initially offered a fuller-service model. Competition from Continental in the New Orleans market, alongside cash-flow problems, led Pride Air to suspend flights on November 15, 1985, after roughly three months of operations. The following December, it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The supplied history records no successor or merger.
