Aloha Airlines Passport Cover
Set out with a passport cover that salutes one of Hawaii’s most recognizable airline names. Aloha Airlines linked Honolulu with the islands for decades, growing from Trans-Pacific Airlines and its 1946 beginnings into a jet operator known for Boeing 737 Funbirds. For travelers, aviation collectors, and admirers of Hawaiian transportation history, it is a meaningful reminder of the carrier’s warm regional identity and its 2008 passenger-service finale.
Aloha Airlines was a Honolulu, Hawaii-based passenger carrier that operated from 1946 to 2008, with its hub at Honolulu International Airport, now Daniel K. Inouye International Airport. Publisher Ruddy F. Tongg Sr. founded it as charter carrier Trans-Pacific Airlines, beginning service on July 26, 1946, with a Douglas C-47 flight from Honolulu to Maui and Hilo. Scheduled service followed in June 1949 after federal approval. The company adopted the name TPA-The Aloha Airline in 1950 and became Aloha Airlines in 1958. Its fleet evolved from DC-3s and turboprops to BAC One-Eleven and Boeing 737 jets; the 737-200s were called Funbirds. Aloha acquired Princeville Airways in 1987 as Aloha IslandAir, later Island Air, which became independent in 2003. Mainland service began in 2000. After two Chapter 11 filings, Aloha ended scheduled passenger flights on March 31, 2008. Saltchuk Resources acquired its cargo division, while the Aloha name and intellectual property were purchased by Yucaipa Companies in 2011.
