Trans World Airlines, TWA, is a former American airline, which was part of the Big Four (American Airlines, United Airlines and the defunct Eastern Air Lines).
The company was created on July 13, 1925. In October 1930, it merged with Transcontinental Air Transport to become Transcontinental and Western Air (T&WA). In 1950, the company changed its name to become Trans World Airlines (TWA).
From the mid-1940s to the early 1970s, TWA was one of only two American airlines to fly to Europe (the other being Pan American World Airways).
