I was looking through my aviation scrapbook (where I keep all my old boarding cards). A big feeling of nostalgia came over me when I saw all the old airlines. Here is my list of carriers I have flown that are no longer. What about others:

Eastern
PBA
Bar Harbor
Pan Am (1)
Braniff (1 and 2)
New York Air
Midway (1)
Reno
Trump
TWA
National (1)

Money does not bring you happiness. But it's better to cry in your own private limo than on a cold bus stop.

Interflug
Old Aeroflot (though I'd say they are not extinct, but anyway).
Us Air (or have they simply changed names?)

I can't believe I left out Pan Am. I took this DC10 from LAX-MIA in the Summer of '82 to board a cruise ship.

I've been on TWA too but I don't consider them extinct just yet. I saw one land today at LAX.
