- Hooters - yes, that Hooters - once had its own airline, but it wasn't long before it was grounded. Pan Am was America's premier airline, but struggled through years of financial turbulence. Concorde was an engineering marvel, but was brought down by tragedy.

Why These 3 Iconic Airlines Disappeared From The Skies | Rise And Fall | Insider Business
PanAm was an airline. Hooters Air was an airline. The Concorde was an *aircraft*, flown by Air France and British Airways, who still fly today.
Concorde wasn't an Airline, it was operated by British Airways and Air France, which are very much still in business
He said AIRLINER - which is correct.
"No other airliner has come close to SuperSonic Travel"
@tbas8741 But the title clearly states the video was about three AIRLINES that stopped service, so andy3127 is quite right.
@@samsylvester2140 He was reffering to the Comment i Quoted.
Which was "No other AIRLINER has come close to SuperSonic Travel"
When he thought the guy/bot narrator as its a bot not a person said "No other AIRLINE has come close to SuperSonic Travel"
@@tbas8741 He did not refer to anything you wrote. His comment is standing on its own under the entire video, titled "Why These 3 AIRLINES Disappeared"
We can shorten this discussion. The title of this video is "Why These 3 Airlines Disappeared From The Skies". Ailrine No. 1 is Hooters, arlines No. 2 is PanAm. But there is no 3rd Airline as the Concorde is no airline but an airlplane. So things are totally mixed up in this video. No matter what is said in the video, andy3127 is totally correct.
The Pan-Am swag was real. My buddy's uncle was a retired Pan-AM 747 pilot. He was so proud of his service with them, and was living the high life in retirement.
When did he retired?
@@SoulRocketManDon't recall specifically, but some time in the late 80s.
I rode on hooters air when I was 12 years old, with my brother and father. It was quite an experience lol.
The part where he says, ' even the bad ones feel good.... because I'm still here!"... Now that hits a spot!! ❤ I don't know what but, I feel for him😢
It was sad to see Pan Am go bankrupt.
I flew on Pan Am with my parents from New Zealand to Canada (via Hawaii) in 1974 - it was great!
Very proud to have flown on such an iconic airline.
Yeah especially sad because to me personally I feel the government failed them. During the world War they helped them so much and held them back from domestic flights. Panam had so many innovations and if not for them who knows if the 747 would've been built. My opinions only. I live in New York and I still get to see the panam building now and then
Pan Am brings back memories. I flew on Pan Am several times going to Germany and back to the us as a kid.
PAN-AM was like the QANTAS of America. So iconic
I never flew on Pan Am as I was born after they went under, but when I learned about them, I was still sad I didn’t have the chance to fly them.
@@electro_sykesOr the British Airways of America.
I handled Hooters Air in Las Vegas. They really weren’t an airline. The flying was done by Pace Air and they had traditional flight attendants onboard. The Hooters Girls onboard were not crew members all they did was sell merchandise onboard. It was a public charter . Pace was inept and I remember they had no procedures in place when they left someone’s wheelchair behind and they didn’t want to get a loaner for the customer.
So basically Hooters Air was similar to what Monarch did with Celeb Air?
I flew NYC to London on Pan Am two days after the Locherbie bombing (December 23, 1988) on flight 102, the "sister flight" to 103. To say that folks were tense was an understatement. The only time I ever heard a whole 747 full of people break into applause upon landing. One week later I was on Pan Am flight 103 coming back (they might have renumbered the flight by that point, but it was the same timing/route).
Just goes to show how people will allow anything if you scare them enough.
wym@@user-to9lk8ix6h
Clearly you've never traveled with RyanAir!
Don’t forget Trump Airline. They went out of business due to WINNING so much😏 or was it bankruptcy? I can’t remember😂
I had just landed at JFK having flown Pan Am from London. I had about 3 hours before my next flight. I double-checked the gate and departure time and went and got something to eat. When I was done eating, I headed to the gate to hang out. Bit later, they started making the usual boarding will be starting soon messages then not even 5 minutes after that, there was a rush of staff to the gate and all this harried whispering and then a lady made the announcement that the flight was cancelled and there would be no other flights to move us on to. She started crying, and all I could pick out was the words "shutting down". Everyone was stunned silent then this oddly organized chaos ensued as we all started yelling questions and trying to understand what happened. It took two days, but I was eventually able to get on a Delta flight back to home. Was crazy and heartbreaking; I really liked flying Pan Am. Coincidentally ... earlier that year, three hours after I landed in Miami having flown Eastern Airlines, Eastern Airlines shut down.
What an odd but beautiful memory.
Wow. You’re kinda the business version of Final Destination.
So does BI not know the difference between airlines and aircraft?
Fun fact: You are not here to know why 3 iconic airlines disappeared from the skies.
Yeah I only care why Hooters Air disappeared. I already knew about Panam and Concord.
I’m only here to hear while I’m tryin 2 sleep 😴 😂😂😂😂
I'm only here to see flight attendants🤣
Let's get real, it's all because we see Hooters
Yeah you got me there😭
Why is Concorde in this list? It was the name of an aircraft. Not an airline ….
Interesting video. I didnt know about Hooters Air and I enjoyed the Pan Am section. However, the Concorde section should have not been included in this "...3 airlines disappeared..." video. TWA should have been included as they disappeared in the 2000s and they were fairly popular.
What an excellent video!
Pan Am, and concord were a head of there time and the market, totally would love to see Pan Am, and the concord or modern day version of it come back.
if two waitresses doing ten mins a trivia is an experience i guess. i use to fly hooters air alot, i lived in atlanta and had a place in myrtle beach and as a golfer went up fairly often and it was really one of the only ways to get there without driving 6 hours because outside of airtran (theres a throwback) it was hard to find cheap constant airfare. it was a normal airline for 99 percent of the flight.
Thank you for this informative video. Seems like Hooters has gradually become less known in these types of airlines.
As someone who lives in South Carolina, I gotta appreciate bob for making myrtle beach a tourist attraction. It’s a nice place, well during the day. 💀
Actually source of shutdown of Concorde was caused by EADS/Airbus raised the maintenance costs to an unsupportable level. Rumor was Air France couldn't make money on its routes where BA were. Maintenance costs are a hidden factor, watch how quickly the A380 goes away as parts become harder to source/cost increases
It's probably more to do with rules and regulations from FAA, manufacturers, etc to indirectly and directly causes anti-competition to stop the supplies of parts and alternatives to keep A380s and other aircrafts from being able to still be relevant. Whether or not those are safely, advancements and real concerns is obviously still up for debate.
That was compounded by the fact that when people paid to fly on Concorde, they expected to fly on Concorde. Each airline who flew them had to have one or two spare Concordes just sitting on the tarmac at departure and destination airports, not making money just in case something went wrong and they had to swap one out.
@@BigBoiiLeem Its well known that BA used the development air-frame G-BBD for spares. There is already substantial drought in the supply chain for the A380's so the scrapping of the earlier airframes is no surprise, also given the early examples suffered from excess weight
@Bubba Von Braun do you mean frame G-BBDG? I can't find any mention of G-BBD in production records. If it is G-BBDG, then that last flew in 1981. It was used for spare parts, but it never flew again after 1981.
What I meant was BA and Air France sat full working Concordes as spares on the tarmac. In case there was an issue that couldn't be fixed before the next departure, they would just swap it out for another Concorde airframe.
The A380 hasn't even broke even yet and never will. It's a giant eyesore that Boeing did DECADES before with the 747.
Great work team
Fun fact the pan am’s first flight around the world was on accident as the plane could not get home after Japan did the whole Pearl Harbor incident
Public flying in general was an outgrowth from the mail carrying planes. Aviation history is very fascinating.
Ah yes, my favorite airline, Concorde
So sad that Pan Am folded. I’m from a tiny village in the Scottish highlands and one of our teachers, (I was 11 and in primary school), had family in Lockerbie. Blaming Pan Am was unfair - the CIA knew far more about the plan to bomb the aircraft and had withheld that information. Also, calling Concorde an airline…wtf? It was an aircraft and was built by France and Britain and operated by British Air and Air France…..both of which are still massive airlines. Researchers really dropped a bollock on this piece.
I flew on a Pan Am 747 from NY to London than back from Paris to NY. I just remember how big it seemed on the inside. After it went bankrupt I didn't see anything with the Pan Am logo on it until '97 when I saw a small twin engined seaplane land at Bimini in the Bahamas flying the logo. I guess they were flying short hops out if Miami at the time and using small seaplanes for destinations too small to have airports.
Damn, so I guess they had to go back to what they knew best
I really miss Concord 💙
When I was younger like as a child. I always thought that when riding the Concord, everyone got a nose bleed. Maybe I thought that cuz it went so fast. Now I wish I could try the Concord. It would be epic!
I flew Pan Am intl a year before it stopped. I remember asking for a glass of water and the steward said "what for?"
This was great! Three interesting business stories well narrated
Manhattan has a ‘T’ in it love
Suprised pan am railroad which uses the pan am trademark and was recently acquired by csx wasn’t mentioned
Pan-Am, TWA, Viasa, Swissair, Hooters Air. All great airlines ✈️
Belgium SABENA Airlines 1923-2001. Most of the fleet went to Brussels Airlines
Well, Concorde wasn't an airline...but definitely an iconic aircraft I used 6 times.
I wish to go back in time and fly Pan-Am
I didn’t know that Hooters air existed and I was born in 1990 and I go to Hooters a lot I always go for food until I meet the right girl at Hooters.
Big B also flew as a Concorde passenger once!
They might still be around if they gave a hoot about keeping abreast with industry changes. 😊
@9:33 - to think today, it still takes about seven hours to get from NYC to Paris.
Concorde few to Miami too. I would see it on approach in the afternoons west of MIA. Concorde was also featured in Miami Vice, where a “North Irish terrorist”, played by Liam Neeson, planned on shooting down the Concorde with a Singer Missile…
Great Airlines that is for sure. On the last note, not all supersonic flights are lost. A company called Boom Supersonic is working on bringing Supersonic Flight back to the sky!
Nice hooters!!!
I finished my research into this about 3 minutes in. I guess I'll watch the rest of the video
I'm not old enough to be around for Concorde. Hopefully I don't become too old to fly Boom Supersonic!
I flew in the grand concourse, eastern airlines,twa ,, touring is fun but tiring...
"And finally, Concorde became profitable"
Well yeah... maybe also because getting these airframes was super subsidized by the respective governments. The French and British just wrote off over 2 billion(!) USD in development costs and handed these planes over to the airlines at virtually no cost.
Fuel prices and maintenance was expensive. Acquisition and capital cost were negligible.
"founded in Florida" As soon as I heard that part, it explain everything.
Thumbnail 😂🤣🤣
Bring back hooters airlines
the bankruptcy of pan am has to be one of the saddest and biggest blows to the aviation industry ever
Got a model of N252TR in my living room, got away with just carrying across the dutch border after departing o'hare then into denmark.
Hooters was operated by Pace who did charters.
Honestly i am here just because of Thumbnail 🙂
Hooters Air, Pan Am and the Concorde SST.
Nice thumbnail choice
Pan Am is now a railroad. Guilford Transportation became Pan Am Railways.
forgot the santa fe airline
Why 2 Airlines and 1 Airliner Disappeared would be a better title
Fun fact that Emirates actually want to start up the Concord again
There was a very short-lived Hooters 'restaurant' on the sea front in Las Americas, but it was too seedy for most people, especially families and older people and too far away from Veronicas to cater for those who favoured Veronicas, the more family oriented restaurant that took its place is doing quite well.
I remember growing up that there were two cool fast jets growing up... in my opinion. The Concorde and the SR-71 Blackbird. Also, the coolest military jet was the F-14 Tomcat. 😅
Top gun
Im hearing PANAM in my sleep now, how many times do u have to repeat that
could somebody count how many times they said PAN AM pls
*Concorde was the name of an aircraft, not a an airline ...*
Back in the time the CEO of United Way was using donated funds to fly on the concord to Eurpoe once a month.
Why I will never donate one cent to Unite Way.
I am English, but Pan Am was a legendary airline and I would have loved to have flown on one of the Pan Am flying boats, which were used in world war two with great success by the R.A.F. and the United States Army AIR Force.
I have flown on 747s a few times, sadly not with Pan Am.
talks about Gary Indiana, points at southWEST Chicago, apparently they think Indiana is Illinois or that Gary Indiana is a town in Illinois
22:03 "it was a sexy aircraft"
Fun fact: when Concorde flew East to West, it would fly faster than the earth’s rotation, meaning, you’d land earlier than you departed! (And then a little turd says something similar a few minutes into the Concorde segment). I was first, damnit. In other news, NASA is now testing supersonic jets that make sonic ‘booms’ sound more like a car door slamming shut. Would be wonderful if their research allowed supersonic travel not just across the oceans, but also across land (they’re just the trials and the aircraft are tiny compared with the Concorde but only time will tell).
Anybody knows who voiced that video? The voice sounds so familiar, but I can't put my hand on it. Edit: on the Hooters-Air part.
There were many people that narrated it.
This video's thumbnail played on my lowest animal man instincts. And I clicked.
I accidentally came across this video looking for anything about Evergreen International. My parents were loadmasters for them for MANY years before they went down and didn’t pay them for almost a whole YEAR 🥲 I remember they ‘took’ 2 vans and HELLA stuff from their office as compensation 😂 I’d love to see a video about the rise and fall of Evergreen! This video was amazing
Hooters Air and Pan Am were airlines, Concorde was an aircraft.
The audio is all over the place in the Hooters piece. Maybe an editor that also knows audio?
Small point Insider Business - Concord is not an airline....it's an aircraft...
Hooters airlines, most American airline ever
Fun fact: Hooters Air had their inaugural flight the day after my 10th birthday.
Hooters is the only airline I’d want an aisle seat instead of window 😂
3:52 is that Rachel Roxxx ?
The Concorde wasn’t an airline. Air France and British Airways were the only operators. Both are still operating.
Braniff was a limited operator.
Hooters big mistake was buying well used 737-200 and 400s. They were already worn out by the time Hooters bought them. Plus those older 200 engines are thirsty. The maintenance and fuel costs, even on fully loaded flights, would outweigh any kind of profits from fair and cargo. I’d have loved to have been a fly on the wall when that idea was pitched. There had to be copious amounts of alcohol or drugs, or both, involved in that sales pitch.
Pace owned the aircraft. They were just leased by hooters.
Never heard of Hooters Air. I bet they had the best flight meal out of all the other airlines.
Edit: NO WINGS?!?! Pfft.. no wonder it failed
Sting on Concorde!
I guess the MeToo crowd caught up with Air Hooters.
I’m confused, Concorde is an airplane not an airline. Air France and BA are still here today. Am I missing something?
No, they are just not very smart
How is Concorde an airline? It is an airplane!
Concord was never an airline!! It was an airplane used by British Airways and Air France which are both still in business
Can’t believe Hooter’s Air happened post Y2K. God bless America.
Why do you say God bless America? Have you ever read your constitution? If not then you should as you will not find the word God in it.
Y2K? You mean the big nothing?
The Concorde was safe as anything. It should be stressed that piece of metal on the tarmac could have caused any other aeroplane's fuel tank to rupture. It's a sad state of affairs that due to costs it was discontinued. However it also should be noted that Richard Branson offered to buy the Concorde fleet from BA for £1 a plane and promised to reinitiate commercial services under Virgin Atlantic, but as BA's bitter enemy, British Airways turned this opportunity down.
Branson's offer was not actionable since there was no manufacturer support or aircraft insurance available to him. You fell for a PR stunt.
It’s actually called a restaurant.
The Concorde is a supersonic airliner
Absolutely crazes me, and I'm English, and we invented the lingo,and some Americans say Rowte!
It's pronounced ROUTE as it's spelt...
But it's a shame these airlines went bust, but can't compete against big companies and Pan AM loosing est 3M per day, it was definitely time to call it a day.
“Rout” and “Root” are BOTH acceptable pronunciations for route in American English. Derby is pronounced “derby”, NOT “darby” in American English. There’s many more examples. Get over it.
We have many words that have dually acceptable pronunciations,and, ROUTE is one of them. ROOT or ROWTE.
How did I never hear of Hooters Air?
The 707 went from NY to Paris in 6.5 hours at best, not 8.
0:08 = Thumbnail
As airline seats don't have enough stains.
Hooters: "Do you like t!ts? Fly with us!"
This video should be about 3 airlines. Why is the Concorde, which wasn't an airline, but an airliner, a part of the video?
Hooters airlines went bust after too much weight on board the final flight caused it to crash in-between two mountains!
...and that's the story of how a set of mile-high tiddies brought upon the destruction of supersonic commercial air travel.
Why they would of all failed of not for bailouts
Where’s Eastern Airlines?
What happened to the incident when a KLM B747 crashed with an PAN AM B747
19:30 Tu 144’s first airborne was one year earlier than Concord. How come Tu 144 was a steal from Concord?
One was conceived and designed earlier than the other, but the other one had its first test flight before.
