PAN AM AIR BRIDGE
Chalk's was purchased by the resurrected Pan Am in 1996 and was rechristened Pan Am Air Bridge. The first flight departed Miami's Watson Island terminal on March 1, 1996. The operation was short-lived though, with Pan Am filing for bankrupcty in 1998. The airline returned as Chalk's Ocean Airways in 1999.
