| Airline Timetables are booklets that many airlines use to inform passengers of flight schedules, fleet, security, inflight entertainment, menu & other information.
Airline timetables used to be mainly produced as small, paperback books that would be handed to passengers at airport counters, or upon request by phone or mail. On January 16, 1928, Pam Am, published one of their first books. It read The air-way to Havana. Airline timetable books are famous for their diversity, Many had colorful covers as seen from the range of old Air India time tables (1940's to 1990's).
Most airlines worldwide have stopped production of timetable books, in order to cut costs and reduce the delay between a change of schedule and a new timetable being in the hands of the public. As a consequence, most airlines now post their timetables online. With the result, the time tables of old have found their way into aviation collectables |
