Celebrate a familiar airline name and the history behind it with this US Airways Embroidered Dad Cap Hat. Founded in Pittsburgh as All American Aviation in 1939, the company moved from mail service to passengers and later became Allegheny Airlines, USAir, and US Airways. Its expanding network, shaped by acquisitions, connected many chapters of American aviation. The brand ultimately gave way to American Airlines in 2015, making its story especially compelling to collectors of airline identities and longtime travelers.
US Airways traced its history to All American Aviation, founded in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 1939 as a mail carrier serving the Ohio River valley. The company moved into passenger service in 1949 as All American Airways and became Allegheny Airlines on January 1, 1953. Following airline deregulation, Allegheny adopted the USAir name in 1979 and expanded beyond its northeastern network. Acquisitions shaped its reach: it absorbed Lake Central in 1968 and Mohawk in 1972, then acquired Pacific Southwest Airlines in 1986 and Piedmont Airlines in 1987, completing those transactions in 1988 and 1989. USAir adopted the US Airways name and a new identity in 1997. After financial difficulties and two Chapter 11 filings, it combined with America West in 2005 in a reverse merger, retaining the US Airways brand while America West executives largely led the company. In 2013, US Airways and American Airlines announced a merger; their holding companies combined on December 9. The unified airline used the American Airlines name and branding. The FAA issued a single operating certificate on April 8, 2015, ending US Airways as an independent carrier, and the brand remained in use until October 2015.
