Looks like the 737-800 would be used by both Eastern and a new Pan Am... Both have strong brand names that can be leveraged and are recognizable worldwide.
Key questions:
1. Where will they be based? JFK? MIA?
2. Where will they get experienced pilots willing to give up opportunities with the now-hiring legacies? I highly doubt pay-for-training will fly with the majors hiring every month.
3. How will they secure gates and slots at the most desirable cities?

Pan American Airways to revive the Pan Am brand with Boeing 737-800s
By Bruce Drum on April 17, 2014 | Leave a comment
Pan American Airways Global Holdings, Inc. (New York) is the parent holding company of six brands of the Pan American family.
The would-be paper airline wants to revive the Pan Am name and brand. If it does, it will be the fourth version using the venerable name.
On April 5 the company issued this statement:
Pan American Airways is pleased to announce that it has completed formal selection of aircraft for it's planned launch early this summer to include the Boeing 737-800 models, with upgrades to the NexGen later as service needs develop.
In late March of 2014, Pan American entered into discussions with an undisclosed lessor that is well positioned to support Pan Am's growth strategy within the southern tier markets, and have ratified formal agreements through an issued LOI early Friday, and will be supported with a signed Purchase Agreement once aircraft delivery is ready to proceed.
Senior executives close to these negotiations continue to monitor the formal delivery of these aircraft, as certain criterion need to be met in order to deliver the specified flying experience that the brand wishes to extend to its audience.
Pan American is committed to delivering a top flight level of service that was once enjoyed by many worldwide, and those expectations will be extended into the new 21st century business model, as we continue to proceed with our plans to launch early, to mid-summer of this year.
In other Pan American news, crew selections will begin early to mid-next week for both in-flight attendants, as well as needed Captains and First Officers, and will be formally addressed through the appropriate department heads from each section through upcoming published releases to be issued to the public. However, those that wish to apply formally online may do so by submitting their respective resumes via our online source through [email protected].
According to the company, Pan American strives to be the industry-leading provider of safe, clean, reliable and cost-efficient air service. Pan American Global aircraft will deploy under our network brands as well as our wholly owned subsidiaries of Blue Sky Airlines and P21 Air.
