People Express Airlines
Cheaper than the bus out of Newark. From 1981 to 1987, People Express charged for bags and coffee before anyone dared, made every employee a manager, and grew too fast to last.
Everything on the board for People Express Airlines
The airline that made flying cheap
People Express sold seats out of Newark for less than the bus, charged for bags and coffee before anyone else dared, and made every employee a manager with shares in the company. It grew too fast, bought Frontier, and was absorbed into Continental in 1987. Our People Express designs draw on the Newark years — the marks crews wore when low-cost was brand new.
Every garment is printed when you order it, in the USA, with the disclaimer on the label: an independent tribute, for the people who remember.
