Share a little aviation history with a new arrival. Pride Air was founded by Paul Eckel, a former chief pilot who hoped to build an employee-owned airline based in New Orleans. Flights began on August 1, 1985, with a plan to link California and Florida through the city, but competition and cash-flow difficulties ended service just a few months later. This infant bodysuit brings the airline’s distinctive story to a family keepsake, making it a thoughtful choice for aviation-minded parents and collectors who enjoy the brief chapters of airline history.
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.
