In between the website Count Florida mentioned on the Olympic Airways topic and the very complete list on SmilinJack's website, I could not resist commenting on these!

Calm Air (what happens when they hit turbulence? Truth in adversiting?)
Kitty Hawk (it better not be as flimsy and fly for more than 13 seconds)
Oneida Airlines (hope the cutlery is real)
Harlequin Airlines (I can imagine what the inflight reading material is)
Precision Air (they better be precise, otherwise you end up like the Air France Airbus that just crashed)
Air 2000 (the milennium is so last century...or something like that)
Braathens S.A.F.E (breathe safe or breathe a sigh of relief?)
Buzz (as in what the coffee will give your or as in buzzing the tower??)
Condor (if this is a European Airline, it seems kinda far for this Andean native)
Free Airways (cool! Free is good...however as we know...no such thing as a free lunch)
Free Bird Airlines (WHOA!! I prefer my pilots dressed, thank you very much!!)
Gandalf Airlines (Lord of Rings franchising has gone too far)
Suckling Airways (say that again??)
Lynx Air (now there's a good GATO name)
Air Bourbon (wonder what they serve as beverage)
bmibaby (sounds like someting Austin Powers would say)
DBA (do consultants run this airline?)
Edelweiss Air (Sound of music is their soundtrack?)
Luxair (they better live up to the name)


Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends ~~M. Angelou~~

Having had to fly TAP recently, I'd like to nominate them for changing their name to "Take Another Plane." Ugh!
