New Air Mail Service Promises Faster Transcontinental Mail
The inaugural New York to Chicago air mail run completed in 8 hours and 43 minutes with three relays at Bellefonte and Cleveland. Mails leave New York at 5 am and arrive in Chicago at 1 pm, with return by 8 pm, all in a single day. If reliability matches the New York Washington route, postal efficiency and aerial links to other cities will grow, and costs may fall over time. Air mail is no longer an experiment and is here to stay.
