TWA's map, fortunes, service, look, and fleet improved and expanded considerably in the 3 years since 1960. The route map now added flights to Tampa and Atlanta. 707-300s and Convair 880s came on line. TWA pioneered in-flight movies (see memorabilia section). The famed "double globe" look along with the Saarinen Terminal at JFK was introduced in 1962. Finally, the brilliant but eccentric Howard Hughes was almost out of the picture by this time. TWA's future never looked better.
