People Express Airlines, stylized as PEOPLExpress, was an American low-cost airline that operated from 1981 to 1987, when they merged into Continental Airlines. The airline’s hub was Newark International Airport.
People Express was launched in 1981 and in 1983 People Express began non-stop flights from Newark to London. In 1985 People Express bought out Denver-based Frontier Airlines. The combined company had flights to most major U.S. cities and to Brussels. Integrating Frontier’s operations caused labor struggles within the newly absorbed airline, and the change to a low-fare, no-frills mentality alienated Frontier’s passengers. The failed integration and enormous debt stretched People Express too far, and in 1986, the company announced they were working to seek buyers for part, or all, of the airline. People Express ceased to exist as a carrier in 1987, when their operations were merged into the operations of Continental Airlines.
