Key US Airlines That Avoided Bankruptcy (1985–1995)
  • American Airlines: Known as one of the few legacy carriers that did not seek bankruptcy protection during this era.
  • Southwest Airlines: Continued its rapid growth as a low-cost carrier during the 1980s and 1990s without filing for bankruptcy.
  • Delta Air Lines: Did not do so during the 1985–1995 period and in fact grew by acquiring bankrupt Pan Am's assets in 1991.
  • United Airlines: Similar to Delta, United did not file during this specific period.
  • Alaska Airlines: The regional carrier continued its operations as a strong West Coast carrier, avoiding bankruptcy during this period.
  • Hawaiian Airlines: Survived this period without bankruptcy.
While most major casinos in Atlantic City have faced bankruptcy at the corporate level, the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa stands out as the most consistently successful property that has never filed for bankruptcy.
Didn't The Borgata open in 2003? I mean you are using a casino that not only did not open up in the same Decade but not even the same Millennia as Trump's casino. GTFO

Comparing those airlines to Trumps, what, 20 aircraft at the height of Trump Airlines? Did those airlines even start service in the mid-80s, or were they already well established in one way or the other. How is that a comparison to the many start up airlines that failed in that era, like almost all of them. Just like the Casinos in Atlantic City. Cool stories tho, please tell us more.
