Dining in tourist class was also a thoroughly delightful experience.  Each passenger in the coach cabin selected his or her choice of three entrees, a filet mignon cooked to order, fresh fish, or a breast of chicken.  All accompanied by delectable sauces and prepared using the freshest, best quality ingredients. 

TWA meal selections were planned and executed to appeal to the most discriminating gourmet.

TWA was established through the merger of several small airline companies in the 1920s. One of those small companies was Maddux Air Lines, which began a luxury passenger service between Los Angeles and San Diego on July 21, 1927.
