According to WIkipedia, it was on the 16th of October, 2015, when U.S Airways made it’s last flight, under the Cactus Callsign. U.S Airways Flight 1939, left San Francisco (KSFO), heading to Philadelphia (KPHL). The Flight Departed at 10:00 P.M. Pacific Time, and Landed at 5:50 A.M Eastern Time, where the Airline would already be operating under the American Airlines name.
Sorry about that, everyone here in Pittsburgh was very annoyed when they flew right over without stopping, great post, I forgot it was this time of year…
I was pretty shocked US Airways didn’t make a stop at @KPIT. Pittsburgh was one of their biggest hubs before they moved it all to Philadelphia. They still had some sort of operation there in PIT though.
I was upset that US Airways went away. Another airline gone in the history books
There is actually still a lot of legacy stuff here, one of the main AA call centers for costumer service was here till recently, and PIT is still one the main A320 family maintenance base for AA, so all there new A321 NEOs are being flown here from Hamburg for delivery, and being given final fittings and tests here…
Interestingly, they only had flights in California from SJC.
The recent U.S. Airways pre-merger most likely had flights to Phoenix. However, I believe the recently cut Charlotte to San Jose route was post-merger.
