Description: National Airlines was awarded new certificate authority in the Houston to Seattle market by the unused or “dormant” route authority provisions of the new Deregulation Act on March 2, 1979. Service was offered with Boeing 727 aircraft. Covers are known postmarked at both the Houston Post Office and Airport Mail Facility, but these items were not verified as having been properly flown.This cover was intended for the March 2, 1979 inaugural National Airlines flight from the Houston, Texas Airport Mail Facility to Seattle, Washington.After offers from several other airlines, Pan American World Airways proposed to merge with National Airlines in August 1978. Formal agreement was reached by the two carriers one month later. Almost one year later the Civil Aeronautics Board gave tentative approval and, in October 1979, sent its order to President Carter. On December 22, 1979, the President approved the merger, and on January 7, 1980, Pan American became the owner of all remaining National Airlines stock. Complete operational merger of the two airlines did not occur until late in 1980.
