We felt the lure of Latin America" is the headline of a Pan American World Airways advertisement, and the slogan itself shows how the airline sold travel to the region. Pan Am was among the first American carriers to build a large network of routes south of the border, beginning in the late 1920s, and its ads often pitched flying as a way to reach distant destinations quickly and in comfort. Campaigns like this one, which appeared in magazines during the mid-20th century, helped turn air travel from a novelty into an everyday choice for vacationers and business travelers.
