Pan American World Airways, originally founded as Pan American Airways and commonly known as Pan Am, was the leading and largest international airline, serving as the unofficial flag carrier of the United States from its establishment in 1927 until its closure on December 4, 1991. The airline began its operations in 1927, offering scheduled airmail and passenger flights between Key West, Florida, and Havana, Cuba. Pan Am is celebrated for its numerous innovations that had a profound impact on the global airline industry, including the introduction of jet aircraft, jumbo jets, and computerized reservation systems. Furthermore, it was a founding member of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the global organization representing the airline industry.

Recognized by its iconic blue globe logo, often referred to as "The Blue Meatball," the use of the term "Clipper" in the names and call signs of its aircraft, and the unique white caps worn by its pilots, the airline became a cultural icon of the 20th century. At a time when many national carriers were fully or largely government-owned, Pan Am operated as the unofficial international flag carrier for the United States. During much of the jet age, the airline's main terminal was the Worldport, located at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City.

A bond is a document of title for a loan. Bonds are issued, not only by businesses, but also by national, state or city governments, or other public bodies, or sometimes by individuals. Bonds are a loan to the company or other body. They are normally repayable within a stated period of time. Bonds earn interest at a fixed rate, which must usually be paid by the undertaking regardless of its financial results. A bondholder is a creditor of the undertaking.
