How far did Pan Am go with its plans to have passenger trips to the Moon?

It is well known that Pan American World Airways took more than 90,000 reservations for future passenger flights to the Moon from 1968 until its fall into bankruptcy. How far beyond that did Pan Am go? Did they hire engineers to determine, at least, what would be necessary to build a space plane capable of carrying passengers to the Moon? Did any of the aircraft manufacturers start work on the vehicle?
