Midwest Express route map, May/June 2001

Midwest Express Airlines route map from May/June 2001. The Milwaukee-based carrier was one of the more successful business-focused boutique carriers, with 2-2 seating on its primarily DC-9 fleet and one of the first to offer baked onboard chocolate chip cookies, which is now a staple in US premium cabins. In addition to its Milwaukee hub, it operated focus cities in Kansas City and Omaha.

Republic Airways purchased Midwest Express (then Midwest Airlines) in 2009 and merged it with Frontier Airlines in 2010. The Midwest network was subsequently dismantled.

Midwest Express operated 35 aircraft, including eight DC-9-15s, 16 DC-9-30s and 11 MD-80s, on 1 May 2001, the Ascend Fleets database shows. Its wholly-owned regional partner Skyway Airlines operated 15 B1900Ds and seven Fairchild/Dornier 328JETs.
