The final route map issued by

Pan Am with the sale of the

European routes the airline

was planned to shrink back to

something like its earlybeginnings in Latin America.

This was the planned

structure had Delta followed

through on its promises to the

reorganization.

Pan Am never flew this set of

routes as it never emerged

from bankruptcy and ceased

operations on December 4,

1991.
