Pan American Airways Is Back, But It's Not What It Seems

A small gaggle of former Pan American World Airways flight attendants stood by a window in Terminal 7 at John F. Kennedy International Airport, craning their necks and holding up phones. There were a few audible gasps and a soft cry of 'Oh gosh, there it is' as the plane came into view. Several of the women teared up as the jet finally slid past the window, its fin bearing the unmistakable cobalt-blue meatball of the Pan Am logo. The former flight attendants—and several dozen fellow passengers—were at JFK on Tuesday to board the plane, a chartered Boeing 757 that's being billed as a 'Pan Am journey by private air.' Over 12 days the plane will travel from New York to Bermuda and then on to Lisbon, Marseille, London, and Shannon, Ireland, before returning to New York City. The plane itself, which has capacity for 50 passengers, features fully reclinable lie-back seats, personal devices from which to stream entertainment options, as well as an open bar and chef-prepared meals served by attendants dressed in full Pan Am regalia. The trip cost $59,950 per person for double occupancy, $5,600 more for single occupancy.

Pan Am returns to JFK Airport with flight commemorating Southern and Northern Trans-Atlantic routes

Pan Am left an incredible mark on aviation history, and on Tuesday there was a rare opportunity for history to repeat itself. For more than 60 years, Pan American World Airways, also known as Pan Am, took its passengers to new limits. On Tuesday, there was a commemorative flight out of John F. Kennedy International Airport that paid tribute to one of the world's great airlines. Complete with Pan Am logos, the private charter jet took off on a 12-day journey, tracing the legendary Southern and Northern Trans-Atlantic routes. Passengers will be making stops in Bermuda and throughout Europe. With everything included, such as 5-star hotels, the nostalgic trip costs $60,000 per person. Organizers are also now putting together another trip that will be 21 days, called "Tracing the Trans-Pacific," which will cost $95,000 per person. Flight attendants mark the different eras with what they wear Officials are making the experience as immersive as possible. The entire aircraft is configured with all business class lie-flat seating, and flight attendants are dressed in replicas of the original Pan Am uniforms. "It's such an honor and a privilege to be stepping into this uniform," flight attendant Anna Maria Aevarsdottir said. "We hope we can embrace the grace that they showed America." Each of the flight attendants is representing a different time frame. "I am wearing the galaxy gold and my colleagues are wearing the Super Jet Blue," Aevarsdottir said. The uniforms are something Anita Mathewson knows all about. She was once a flight attendant for Pan Am. She was on hand Tuesday to relive those glory days, but this time as a passenger with her two daughters. "It was a wonderful time in my life. Pan Am was beautiful," said Mathewson, of Norfolk, Connecticut. "Pan Am was about the airline, but it was more about the people. It was the people and the experiences," added Linda Freire, chair of the Pan Am Museum. The trip is a full-circle moment for one family One of the many pilots behind Pan Am's rise to fame was the father of Sheryl Slyter and Louise Koch. "When we were kids, he always brought back stuff from different countries that he visited," Koch said. Now, it's their turn to see those same places their dad flew thousands to and from, since they're passengers on the first commemorative Pan Am jet. "Knowing he was with the flying boats and all the places we are going, that he flew into," Slyter said.

Everyone Stylish Is Wearing These Abercrombie Shorts – And They're In Stock

Now that outdoor temperatures have risen considerably, you may find yourself facing a sartorial dilemma: how to choose an outfit that's both incredibly chic and comfortable enough to withstand the heat. While you may opt for a pair of linen trousers or an airy midi skirt in a bid to keep cool and comfortable, there is one alternative that nails the balance between style and practicality with unfussy polish, and that is a pair of Bermuda shorts. It shouldn't come as a surprise that knee-length Bermuda shorts have begun to dominate the fashion pack, given their endorsement on the spring runways of Miu Miu and Dries Van Noten, not to mention the rise and rise of denim jorts. Naturally, the trend has filtered down to the high street, with brands like Massimo Dutti and COS offering their own takes on the silhouette. Our favourite iteration so far? The Abercrombie & Fitch Mid Rise Bermuda Short, crafted from a mid-weight fabric fit for the summer months. And the fashion crowd has fallen for them - hard. 1. Mid Rise Bermuda Short - Black Few Bermuda shorts look as chic as this tailored pair - classic black, no less. Style them with a matching black leather belt featuring a gold buckle for a bold statement, or opt for silver hardware for a more subtle touch that complements any outfit. Typically popular in clean-cut cottons, washed blue denim and leather, the Abercrombie shorts have taken a slightly more tailored approach - made from suiting-style fabric that has the feel of formal trousers, while maintaining a relaxed wearable silhouette. Available in two colours: a sleek black (which has unsurprisingly been selling out at record speed) and ash, a stone, light grey-beige hue that lends itself to a plethora of capsule wardrobe staples, including longline waistcoats and striped shirts. There's great news for anyone who prefers to stick to linen - there's a lightweight, soft version available to shop, too. They're the same style, same cut and same length as the originals, but this version comes in a crisp white shade that's perfect for the beach (paired with a matching linen shirt) or for evenings out with an Aperol in hand. For a nighttime look, opt for whimsical lace blouses or flirty asymmetrical strapless tops. As for footwear? Footbed sandals like Birkenstocks are ideal for daytime, while mule kitten heels will truly elevate the outfit once the sun goes down. 2. Mid Rise Linen-Blend Bermuda Short - White Alternatively, opt for the linen version in a crisp, cool white - perfect for beach holidays where heavy materials just won't do and beach-friendly outfit formulas are a must. Pair it with linen shirts for an effortlessly cool and comfortable look on hot days. Whichever version you choose, shop them quick before they sell out. We suspect they'll fly off the virtual shelves, as sizes are already dwindling in all colours, in both linen and non-linen. Shop the rest below. 3. Mid Rise Bermuda Short - Ash For a lighter take on the tailored favourite, opt for the Bermuda shorts in ash - perfect when paired with black tops featuring casual-cool cap sleeves or cotton boxy tees for a laid-back yet polished look. 4. Mid Rise Linen-Blend Bermuda Short - Black Shop the black linen shorts if you're looking for a cropped linen staple that looks as good as it feels - especially when your commute includes a stifling tube journey. Lightweight and breathable, they'll keep you comfortable all day long. Image credit: @marthawr and @saroop.k.s and @leahwashyp Emma Richardson is a fashion commerce writer for Grazia.
