GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Make the journey with a name linked to the rise of overnight package delivery. Airborne Express began with postwar air freight roots in San Francisco, expanded after cargo deregulation, and built its express business around a Wilmington, Ohio hub. By 1990, it stood among the leading domestic package carriers. Its later sale to DHL marked another turn in the company’s history, while ABX Air continued in operation. This travel mug celebrates a memorable chapter in American logistics and delivery.
Airborne Express grew from Airborne Flower Traffic, a San Francisco-based air freight forwarder incorporated in California on April 23, 1947. The business became Airborne Freight Corporation in 1965, the year it went public. In 1968, it merged with Seattle-based Pacific Air Freight to form a new Delaware-incorporated Airborne Freight Corporation. After U.S. air cargo deregulation in 1977, the company moved beyond freight forwarding toward overnight package delivery. It acquired Midwest Air Charter in 1980, including its Wilmington, Ohio hub, and renamed the airline Airborne Express. The company adopted Airborne Express as its trade name in 1985 and renamed its airline ABX Air in 1989. By 1990, it was one of three major domestic package express companies alongside Federal Express and UPS. In December 2000, a restructuring made Airborne, Inc. the holding company, with the former Airborne Freight Corporation renamed Airborne Express, Inc. DHL agreed to buy Airborne in 2003 for $1.05 billion; the transaction closed August 15. ABX Air was spun out to shareholders as part of the deal, and the airline remained in operation as of 2026.
