What this record means
The record shows that “NORTHWEST AIRLINES CARGO SELECT 100” is a cancelled registration – the Principal Register entry (Reg. 2496989) was cancelled on July 11, 2008 because the owner did not file a required Section 8 declaration, and the status is listed as dead. The owner is NORTHWEST AIRLINES, INC., a Minnesota corporation, and the mark was limited to “transportation of freight and goods by air” under International Class 039. A similar name used for air‑freight or cargo services would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “Northwest,” “Airlines,” or “Cargo.” No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply tracks the normal examination, allowance and registration before the later cancellation. The supplied history contains no opposition, cancellation proceeding or other enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name that touches air cargo transportation.
