When America West Airlines merges with US Airways later this year, the new company will fly under the US Airways banner because it is the better known brand in most of the United States.

But the Tempe company says America West’s name won’t go away totally.
In an employee newsletter, the carrier said it will keep the name alive in some way, and it’s also interested in ensuring some of the past airlines that went into US Airways are somehow kept alive.
They include Allegheny Airlines, Piedmont Airlines and PSA.
Details of how are being kept secret.
"Without giving any more away, we’ll just say stay tuned," the company wrote.
Maybe some themed aircraft like America West has to commemorate Arizona, Nevada and the various local sports teams could be painted to remember the old airlines?
