Add a conversation-starting piece of airline history to a relaxed gathering with this AccessAir can cooler. The short-lived carrier began service from Des Moines in February 1999, using low fares and brief stops to connect regional cities with longer-distance destinations. Its ambitious route plans, bankruptcy, and attempted restart give the brand a memorable place in late-1990s aviation. Fans of unusual airline histories will recognize the red-and-black aircraft identity and circled-A mark from AccessAir’s Boeing 737-200 era.
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.
