The exclusive flight includes stops in Bermuda, Portugal, France, England, and Ireland.
Pan Am Brands, which owns the former airline’s licensing rights, will fly a special Pan Am-branded private jet on a 12-day trip from New York City in June 2025.
The “Tracing the Transatlantic” itinerary has stops in Bermuda, Lisbon, Marseille, London and Foynes, Ireland, all places that have significance to Pan Am and were on the airline’s old routes. But the price tag? A cool $US59,950 ($88,000) a person.
- From June 27 until July 9, 2025, you can “relive a golden age of travel” — and marvel at your soaring credit card bill — as travel company Criterion partners with the shuttered shuttler for an intercontinental extravaganza spanning nearly two weeks.
- Guests will sleep in some of the top hotels that each stop has to offer, from the Four Seasons Lisbon to NYC’s Waldorf-Astoria, which will be hosting “gala evenings” before and after the trip.
- Another pair of special stops made will include a night of fado music in Portugal plus a posh dinner at Ireland’s Flying Boat and Maritime Museum.
The journey will take place on a privately chartered, All Business-Class Boeing 757-200.
There are only 50 seats available for the flight, with guests able to enjoy modern lie-flat business class seats.
“As we are becoming more accustomed to travel being a commodity, usually a way to get from point A to point B at the most economical price, we offer a reminder of the Golden Age of travel,” the website reads.
“A time when the travel itself was a glamorous experience, and when the journey was as important and special as the destination.”
Indeed, flying was a novelty in the 1960s and ’70s. Old photos show that even airplane food was an absolute decadent dining experience.
Flights included full meal services, happy hour drinks, appetisers, entrees, mains and dessert.
A first-class menu from a Pan American flight showed travellers options including yams, cocktails, backed ham, assorted cheese trays and fresh fruit.
Pan American World Airways, originally founded as Pan American Airways and more commonly known as Pan Am, was an airline that was the principal and largest international air carrier and unofficial overseas flag carrier of the United States for much of the 20th century.
The airline officially commenced operations in 1927, and eventually flew to 86 countries on six continents at its peak in 1968.
Operations ceased on December 4, 1991.
