Northwest Airline

Northwest Airlines was a major American airline founded in 1926, known for its extensive domestic and international routes. It offered passenger and cargo services, emphasizing quality and reliability. In 2008, it filed for bankruptcy due to financial struggles and was subsequently acquired by Delta Air Lines. Its merging into Delta expanded the combined airline's network, and the Northwest brand was phased out. Northwest played a significant role in U.S. commercial aviation history, particularly through its longstanding operations and international connections.
