Brief Introduction:
As one of the largest airlines in America, Northwest Airlines can be traced back as early as 1926 when it operated mail transportation between St. Paul and Chicago with two rented airplanes. Its passenger service followed closely the next year. In 1947, it started America-Asia routes and in 1986, it purchased Republic Airlines of America. In the following years, it created alliances with a variety of world-famous companies, making it possible to extend its network, and provide higher-qualified and more favorable services to millions of passengers worldwide.
