SOUTHEAST AIRLINES
Originally known as Cat
Cay Airlines, Southeast operated a wide variety
of aircraft between Miami and the Keys during the 1960s and 1970s. The
airline shut down in 1976, although it returned a few years later with
flights to the West Indies using jet aircraft.

Both sides of a Southeast Airlines timetable dated September 8, 1975. By that time Air Sunshine was flying DC-3s between Miami and the Keys, prompting Southeast to emphasize that their aircraft were air conditioned, pressurized and radar-equipped.
