The thingamabob that Peter Cornwall has chalked up on the black-n« r*rmrca board here means a lot to ten vice presidents who attended his class

new focus: youth fares
Pan Am is out to win fares that will make points in Europe and the Caribbean more affordable to young travelers.
The airline has filed proposals for special youth fares over three of its routes with the Civil Aeronautics Board.
Recently, Pan Am filed for a $50 youth fare from cities in the Northeastern U.S. to Puerto Rico, and a fare of $62 to the Virgin Islands. These one-way youth fares would be offered on a space-available basis in thrift and economy classes for travelers between the ages of 16 and 21. The youth fares to the Caribbean would be in effect from June 15 to December 15.
full-time students
Attempts are being made to introduce an experimental $200 roundtrip student youth fare between New York and Brussels. The fare—boosted to $220 in peak travel periods—would be effective this summer for full-time students between the ages of 12 and 22. It would apply only to Pan Am’s daily 747 service between New York and Brussels.

Montego surges ahead of Kingston
The lush green hills and white sandy beaches of Jamaica are yielding men and women who obviously feel right at home on the tarmac, behind the ticket counter and inside the bowels of sleek jet planes.
Because not one—but both—of Pan Am’s airport services teams on the island established new company station on-time departure marks this month. And both keep rolling.
Not long after the airport services team at Kingston’s Palisadoes Airport made good on their goal of 500 consecutive station on-time departures May 9, the station’s neighbor to the northwest, Montego Bay, matched the performance.
Now Montego Bay has taken the lead. Airport Services Manager Tony King reported that his team chalked up departure 534 late May 19.
That made the score Montego Bay 534, Kingston 533.
If Montego Bay doesn’t falter, the Pan Am
squad at international airport will continue to widen its lead over Kingston. That’s because Montego Bay dispatches nearly twice as many Clippers every day. And that’s how Montego Bay was able to catch up after learning that Kingston was doing such a consistently respectable job of servicing aircraft within its 40-minute transit time.
they contend with superjets
Montego Bay has a 45-minute transit time, but unlike Kingston, must also service 747s. Montego Bay also averages significantly more passengers per flight: 250 to 300 on 747s and 100 on 707s during the recently completed peak tourist season, according to Mr. King. Kingston ASM Arnold Swanson reports that 707s departing his station average about a third full.
Which doesn’t detract from the fact that the Kingston team has infected Pan Am’s other 128 airport stations around the world with the spirit
of doing the best they can, giving each of them a new target to shoot at.
It surely infected Montego Bay! The station, of course, knew very well the importance of servicing aircraft within the station’s 45-minute transit time. But Pan Am people there weren’t shooting at doing anything more than top quality work until they read about Kingston’s on-time record in the April 12 Clipper, Mr. King said.
Actually, Montego Bay’s string stretches back to February 28, following a flight four minutes late due to late provisioning by an outside caterer.
Kingston’s last tardy departure was January 31, when the board of directors left three minutes beyond the transit limit.
Kingstonians, who celebrated the achievement of their original goal of 500 consecutive station on-time departures with a party shortly after the 500th lifted off, are seriously pursuing a new goal.
