Air Oregon

Ghost Corp Apparel — resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.

Air Oregon took wing in Portland, Oregon, after Executive Flight Services adopted the Air Oregon name in 1977. Based at Portland International Airport, it belonged to the scrappy regional-airline wave connecting Pacific Northwest communities when the big carriers were not always keen on the smaller runs.

Its June 1, 1981 timetable shows a network linking Portland with Oregon cities including Corvallis and Roseburg, plus destinations in northern California, Idaho, and Nevada. It was the practical kind of airline: turboprops, tight schedules, coffee-fueled terminals, and a map that made the Northwest feel a little less far apart.

The Air Oregon run ended in June 1982, when Horizon Air acquired and merged the carrier. The name disappeared from departure boards, but its Portland-rooted regional spirit became part of Horizon’s early expansion.

Our Air Oregon collection celebrates the era of local air travel with a little runway grit: the compact regional carrier, the analog timetable, and the distinctive confidence required to put “Air” in front of your state’s name.
