America's first international airline will take to the skies again in November, when Pan American Airways begins flying out of its Texas hub. But the brand's glamour days are behind it: The new Pan American will start out carrying cargo, not passengers. The new airline — the fifth attempt to re-establish Pan-Am since it went bankrupt in 1991 — will operate out of Brownsville South Padre Island International Airport, near Texas' Mexican border.

Why not just late the name retire? I don't understand the fascination with the name. I wish them the best, but is the the best time and economy to invest in a cargo company, especially in an overall market that is dominated by bigger names/brands, and/or on such routes to Mexico.
