Everything about Airline Timetables totally explained
Airline timetables are booklets that many
airlines worldwide use to inform passengers of several different things, such as schedules, fleet, security, in-flight entertainment, food menu, restriction and phone contact information.
Airline timetables used to be mainly produced as small, paperback books that would be handed to passengers inside airplanes, at ticket agencies and airport counters, or upon request by phone or mail. On
January 16,
1928,
Pan Am published one of their first timetables. It read
The air-way to Havana, Pan American Airways, Pershing Square building, New York.
Airline timetable books are famous for their diversity: Many had colorful covers, such as the ones produced by many
Latin American airlines. Others, such as
Scenic Airlines' timetables, consisted only of one paper, with their hub's flight time information on the front, and the return times on the back.
After the
September 11, 2001 attacks, most airlines worldwide have stopped production of timetable books, in order to cut costs and reduce the delay between a change of schedule and a new timetable being in the hands of the public. As a consequence, most airlines now post their timetables only
online (the larger airlines often offering a stand-alone application, while others provide just a downloadable document such as a
PDF), and the value of many airline timetable books has risen among collectors.
