Midwest Airlines

  • Midwest Airlines is a airline that serves over 20 United States cities and that has its major hub in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Midwest's most popular perk is that it has wide leather seats in a 2x2 arrangement, offering more room than most airlines, and serves its passengers its signature chocolate chip cookies.
