Add an aviation-history touch to your desk with this US Airways Shuttle mouse pad. The shuttle built its identity around frequent links among Boston, New York City, and Washington, D.C., on a route served since 1961. It passed through several names, from Eastern and Trump Shuttle to USAir and US Airways, before joining the mainline operation in 2000. For airline fans, collectors, and travelers, this desk accessory recalls a compact but fascinating story of changing brands and dependable city connections.
US Airways Shuttle was the brand for US Airways' frequent air service linking Boston's Logan International Airport, New York City's LaGuardia Airport, and Washington, D.C.'s Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. Its predecessor, the Eastern Air Lines Shuttle, began serving the route in 1961. In 1989, the operation was purchased from Eastern during that airline's dismantling and briefly ran as Trump Shuttle, from June 7, 1989, until its owners defaulted on loans in September 1990. A syndicate of 22 lenders then arranged for USAir Group to hold a 40 percent interest and manage the operation. On April 7, 1992, Trump Shuttle was merged into Shuttle, Inc.; the new company began operating as USAir Shuttle on April 12. USAir Group later acquired the remaining interest, and the service continued as a wholly owned subsidiary with its own employees and seniority list. Shuttle, Inc. remained a subsidiary until July 1, 2000, when the shuttle merged into US Airways' mainline operation. Frequent service continued, though no longer as a separate airline or division. A temporary expansion to Washington Dulles ended after the September 11, 2001 attacks. First-class seats joined the shuttle fleet in 2004. On October 17, 2015, the service became American Airlines Shuttle.
