Western Airlines - September, 1979
Interesting note included in this timetable:

Royale Airlines - November, 1979
Royale was a commuter that lasted until 1987. Here's an article from 1983 that details Royale's Continental Commuter operation.

National Airlines - March, 1979
How does an airline publish a timetable without a route map? Well, National Airlines did in 1979. Even without the route map, this timetable is a good example of how to use a timetable to advertise. I didn't know that Houston was a focus city for National, so I included the schedules for that city. I searched the internet for a National route map to no avail. I'll keep looking.Update: Here's a site that features some advertising from National and their final route map before they were acquired by PanAm.


This is as close to a route map as you'll get in this timetable:
Here are some other great advertisements:


This is a good commercial featuring National's expansion to Europe:Wednesday, June 13, 2012
Allegheny Airlines - September, 1979
This is a great timetable. It features Allegheny morphing into USAir, which would eventually be renamed US Airways.
From Wikipedia:
But with expansion came growing pains: by the 1970s Allegheny Airlines had the nickname "Agony Air" due to customer dissatisfaction with the carrier's service. Even after a later rebranding to "USAir", when service sometimes skidded downward, complainers sometimes dubbed the airline "Useless Air", or even worse, "USScare."
