Product Details & Size Guide
Carry a piece of regional airline history into your daily routine with this Ransome Airlines tough phone case. Founded in 1967 in Philadelphia, Ransome connected East Coast communities before its partnerships brought the airline into the Allegheny Commuter, Delta Connection, Pan Am Express, and Trans World Express eras. Its changing identities tell a distinctive story of local service and major-carrier connections. A fitting choice for aviation fans, airline memorabilia collectors, and anyone drawn to Philadelphia’s flying history.
Ransome Airlines was founded by J. Dawson Ransome in 1967, with revenue flights beginning that March. Headquartered at Northeast Philadelphia Airport, it first served East Coast cities from Philadelphia to Norfolk with small Beechcraft Model 18 aircraft. In August 1970, it began operating as Allegheny Commuter, feeding flights to Allegheny Airlines’ Pittsburgh hub while retaining a northeastern point-to-point network. That partnership ended June 1, 1982, and Ransome resumed service under its own name. A 1984 agreement with Delta Air Lines brought the Delta Connection identity. Pan American World Airways acquired the airline in June 1987, renamed it Pan Am Express, and expanded service to include Berlin Tegel, New York, Miami and Los Angeles. After Pan American’s collapse, Trans World Airlines bought the company on December 4, 1991, and renamed it Trans World Express. Its European and Miami networks were discontinued, and JFK became its sole hub. The airline ended operations on November 6, 1995, citing lack of profitability. Trans States Airlines took over its JFK routes, while most of its 11 ATR 42 aircraft went to Mahalo Air.
