 About US Airways

 US Airways is an American airline headquartered in Tempe, Arizona, owned by US Airways Group, Inc. The airline is the sixth largest airline in the United States, and the largest low-cost airline[2] in the United States by number of destinations. US Airways has a fleet of 357 mainline jet aircraft and 352 "express" (regional jet and turbo-prop) aircraft connecting 240 destinations in North America, Central America, the Caribbean, Hawaii, and Europe. As of February 2007, US Airways employs 37,675 people worldwide and operates 3,860 daily flights.

 US Airways operates primary hubs in Phoenix, Charlotte, Philadelphia, and Las Vegas. US Airways also maintains focus city operations at Washington Reagan National, New York LaGuardia, Pittsburgh and Boston.[3]

 The airline operates the US Airways Shuttle, a US Airways brand which provides hourly service between key Northeastern markets. Regional airline service is branded as US Airways Express, operated by contract and subsidiary airline companies.

 US Airways also has a partnership with Midwest Airlines at Kansas City. US Airways allows for code sharing in Kansas City with Midwest to select destinations in Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska. US Airways Express serves smaller rural communities from Kansas City and uses the Midwest Airlines hub traffic to help fill the seats on these flights. The US Airways Express flights operated from Kansas City are operated by Air Midwest, which is a division of Mesa Airlines.

 US Airways traces its history to All American Aviation Company, a company founded by du Pont family brothers Richard C. du Pont and Alexis Felix du Pont, Jr.. Hubbed in Pittsburgh, the airline served the Ohio River valley in 1939. In 1949, the company was renamed All American Airways as it switched from airmail to passenger service. The company was again renamed, to Allegheny Airlines, in 1952.

 Allegheny changed its name to USAir in 1979 following the passage of the Airline Deregulation Act the previous year, which allowed the airline to expand its route network to the southern United States. In the early 1980s, its routes in the Northeast were fed by Ransome Airlines, among others. It was at this time with a new corporate name that the company moved its corporate headquarters from Pittsburgh to Crystal City in Arlington County, Virginia near Washington, D.C., although Pittsburgh would remain its primary hub for another two decades.
