About this episode

This week's Eye on Travel Podcast with Peter Greenberg - from The Foynes Flying Boat and Maritime Museum. Peter takes a special look back at one particular airline and a special part of aviation history: Pan Am Sadly, the legendary American flag carrier stopped flying 34 years ago, but its robust history lives on. And recently, the iconic airline brand was revived and repositioned. To commemorate its reemergence, a special plane was repositioned, repainted, and brought back for one special mission. Peter sat down with some great storytellers, ranging from former Pan Am purser Quito Bailey, Pan Am passenger Cynthia McMillan, journalist Seamus Hennessey, and Margaret O'Shaughnessy, the founding director of the Foynes Flying Boat and Maritime Museum.
