AccessAir Sticky Post-it Note Pad
Add an airline-history detail to notes, reminders, and planning with this AccessAir sticky note pad. The design recalls the Des Moines-based low-cost carrier whose ambitious routes connected regional communities through brief stops and through-flights. AccessAir’s short history spans its 1999 launch, Chapter 11 filing, a funded restart in 2000, and closure in 2001. The circled-A identity makes this a distinctive desk accessory for aviation collectors, airline-history readers, and anyone with a connection to Iowa travel history.
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.
