Reno Air - October, 1996

Reno Air was bought by American in 1999 and ultimately dismantled.  American did the same thing to AirCal, then later to TWA.

Reno also had connecting service with American Eagle at Los Angeles.

Golden West Airlines - March, 1983

This was likely the second-to-last or last timetable from Golden West, as it ceased operations in April, 1983. What's interesting about this timetable is that it features the tails from American, TWA, and United, but doesn't mention American anywhere else.

More about Golden West can be found here.

American Airlines - September, 2000

American Airlines put together this 2000 timetable with excellent graphic representations of their hubs and connecting complexes. The airport maps are great, and I included seat maps of some of the airplanes that American no longer flies.

San Jose was still hanging on at this point as a focus city. American opened a hub at San Jose in 1988, using slots it obtained in the buyout of Air California in 1986. Reno Air took over many of American's gates until it was bought out by American in 1998. The San Jose "hub" would disappear shortly after American cancelled the San Jose-Tokyo route in 2006.

One other interesting note is that this timetable includes Business Express as a "cooperative service partner." The commuter airline was purchased by Americanin December, 1998 and was not yet folded into American Eagle.

American Airlines - 2001

Here is an exceptionally well-done post-9/11 commercials from American. They would later use this music bed in the American/TWA merger commercials.
