Continental Airlines
All right, the truth is that this airline is not actually dead. Despite this, it probably would have gone under had it not merged with the parent company of United Airlines in 2012. According to Yahoo Finance, the merger with the UAL Corporation happened for $ billion. After this, the companies unveiled the new logo that was going to be used for the operations. Despite this, Continental Airlines staff members wear the Continental uniform on the job. According to the New York Times, the deal was going to make a strong presence in domestic markets and improve the international reach of both companies. Fun fact: the slogan of Continental Airlines had been “Work Hard, Fly Right”

Carnival Airlines
Who would have thought that this cruise line company once tried its luck in air travel as well? Unfortunately for it, it did not see the same level of success that it saw with its cruises. Yahoo Finance says that the airline had a fleet of 25 planes that would travel from the Eastern Seaboard to Haiti, Puerto Rico, and the Bahamas. After some time, Pan American Airlines bought it. Once the parent company starter to deal with financial issues, Boston-Maine Airways took over the operations. In 2008, it ended up shutting down at the start of the American recession. In the end, Carnival decided to let go of its airplanes and simply stick to cruises.
