The museums renowned Phillip Stone Catering is even getting into the spirit, serving Pan Am's famous Cherries Jubilee for dessert. 

Mary Diorio, President of the Pan Amigo News, the reunions main organizer says, "We are very excited about the tremendous response from the enthusiastic community not just in the states, but globally, demonstrating once again the airline may be gone, but it is certainly not forgotten."
