Bring a brief chapter of Iowa aviation history to the table with this AccessAir pint glass. Founded in Des Moines in 1998, the low-cost airline took to the skies in February 1999 with an ambitious network built around through-flights and short stops. Its red-and-black aircraft markings and distinctive circled-A identity make a memorable subject for airline-history collectors. Raise a glass to a carrier that tried to connect regional travelers with far-reaching routes before its final shutdown in 2001.
AccessAir was a short-lived low-cost airline founded in 1998 and based in Des Moines, Iowa. After several delays, it began flying in February 1999, aiming to offer lower fares in markets including Des Moines, the Quad Cities, and Peoria. Its early route network linked Des Moines with New York's LaGuardia Airport through Quad Cities or Peoria stops; direct service to Los Angeles and a stop in Colorado Springs were added later. The airline also served or planned routes to cities including Chicago, San Francisco, Miami, Atlanta, Boston, Portland, and Seattle. AccessAir used point-to-point routes and through-flights, with brief intermediate stops. Despite discounted fares, passenger loads remained low. It filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in November 1999, after nine months of operations, following about 14,000 enplanements and estimated losses of $30 million. In spring 2000, Des Moines business leader John Ruan III provided funds to take control and restart the airline. Flights resumed in November 2000, initially linking Des Moines and Chicago Midway, with additional destinations intended. Low passenger numbers persisted, and the airline shut down in February 2001. Its fleet included Boeing 737-200 jetliners.

A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
