In 2011, a group purchased the intellectual property, including trademarks, of Eastern Air Lines and formed the Eastern Air Lines Group. The group announced in early 2014 that it had filed an application with the United States Department of Transportation for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity, which will be followed by certification with the Federal Aviation Administration. The new airline began service through charter and wet-lease flights out of Miami International in late 2014 with [[Boeing 737-800]] jetliners painted in the classic Eastern "hockey stick" livery. The IATA and ICAO codes of the original airline, as well as its callsign, were used by the new iteration of Eastern Air Lines.<ref name="HeraldRelaunch">{{cite news | url=http://www.miamiherald.com/2014/01/29/3899717/group-plans-to-bring-eastern-air.html | title=Group plans to bring Eastern Air Lines back to Miami | work=[[Miami Herald]] | date=29 January 2014 | access-date=29 January 2014 | author=Sampson, Hannah}}</ref><ref>{{cite press release | url=http://easternairlines.aero/news/eastern-air-lines-group-inc-files-with-the-us-dept-of-transportation-as-the-first-step-in-launching-the-new-eastern-air-lines-1390992281787.html#sthash.Hh9kxicK.dpbs | title=Eastern Air Lines Group, Inc. files with the U.S. Dept. of Transportation as the first step in launching the new Eastern Air Lines | publisher=Eastern Air Lines Group, Inc. | date=28 January 2014 | access-date=29 January 2014 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141015143548/http://easternairlines.aero/news/eastern-air-lines-group-inc-files-with-the-us-dept-of-transportation-as-the-first-step-in-launching-the-new-eastern-air-lines-1390992281787.html#sthash.Hh9kxicK.dpbs | archive-date=15 October 2014 }}</ref> After a sale to [[Swift Air]], the trademarks were passed on to [[Eastern Airlines, LLC]] in 2018.
