AirNow began in 1957 as Business Air, carrying cargo from its Vermont base at William H. Morse State Airport. After adopting the AirNow name in 1970, the regional airline connected Northeast routes with key airports in Buffalo and Albany while supporting a UPS mailing contract. This polo celebrates a distinctive chapter in American cargo aviation, from the company’s small-aircraft operations to its 2011 shutdown and transition into UPS Express Critical. A thoughtful choice for airline-history fans and AirNow collectors.
Founded in 1957 as Business Air, the Vermont cargo airline operated scheduled and charter services across the Northeast. It was based at William H. Morse State Airport in Bennington. In 1970, Business Air adopted the AirNow name and signed a contract with United Parcel Service (UPS) to improve its mailing service. AirNow selected Buffalo Niagara International Airport and Albany International Airport as key airports to support business and customer service. The Great Recession brought declining activity at its home airport. On February 24, 2011, AirNow ceased operations after its UPS contracts were terminated, then lost income and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The company merged with UPS, which changed AirNow into UPS Express Critical. After the merger, the entire fleet was sold to American Airlines, UPS Airlines, and Airlink. As of April 2008, AirNow operated Embraer EMB-110P1 and EMB-110P2 Bandeirante aircraft and Cessna Caravan 675 aircraft. Its history links a small regional cargo carrier to a broader parcel-delivery network and a successor service.
