From their beginning as a scheduled mail carrier in 1927, Pan American Air Ways rose to the top as a global leader. Initiating routes and actually building runways still used today. Any first in the airline industry – Pan Am was there.

With a history this rich and a list of accomplishments that shine like stars – what was it like to work with this iconic company? Well, four former Pan Am stewardesses will share their experiences and tell their stories – straight from the jumpseat!
