Code data International Air Transport Association IATA Code LWD International Civil Aviation Organisation ICAO Code L8 Airline call sign Callsign Leisure World Company history Leisure Air was set up in 1992 with its base in Winston Salem , North Carolina . It flew charter flights using five leased Airbus A320 , two Douglas DC 10 and Boeing 757 . The charter flights were to the southwest United States, Mexico and the Caribbean . Also it operated charters from Los Angeles and San Francisco to Hawaii using the DC 10s, and Chicago using the A320s. Those DC 10s were also used for charter flights to Europe . When the FAA found irregularities in the maintenance records of the DC 10s, it withdrew the operating license for the DC 10 and the B757. Only the A320s continued to operate but at a much reduced scale. By February 1995 the operations could not be sustained and Leisure Air went out of business. ref Airlines Remembered by BI Hengi, Publisher Midland Publishing ref Fleet details 2 Airbus A320 Airbus A320 231 1 Airbus A320 Airbus A320 232 2 Douglas DC 10 Douglas DC 10 10 2 Douglas DC 10 Douglas DC 10 30 1 Boeing 757 Boeing 757 23A 1 Boeing 757 Boeing 757 28A External links http rzjets.net operators operator.php?opid 813 Fleet and code information http query.nytimes.com gst fullpage.html?res 9F05E1DA1530F935A15752C1A962958260 Leisure Air article References references Category Defunct airlines of the United States ... more details
