GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Carry a piece of Arizona aviation history with an insulated tumbler celebrating Arizona Airways. The Phoenix-based carrier took to the skies in 1946, operating a DC-3 in Thunderbird livery and connecting Arizona communities on its first circular route. Its plans and service changed as federal route decisions shaped the young airline, which later contributed aircraft and routes to the 1950 formation of the original Frontier Airlines. A thoughtful pick for airline-history fans and Arizona heritage collectors.
Arizona Airways incorporated on September 8, 1942, initially to train Navy pilots during World War II. Led by president H.O. “Rocky” Nelson, an engineer and pilot, it began airline service on March 17, 1946, with a 21-passenger DC-3 in Thunderbird livery. Its first circular route linked Tucson, Phoenix, and five other Arizona points. The company sought to acquire a Phoenix–Las Vegas route from TWA, but federal approval did not follow. Arizona Airways expanded around the state, then dropped unprofitable southern destinations and was down to one northern route from Phoenix by January 1948. In February 1948, the Civil Aeronautics Board awarded it four local-service routes: three in Arizona and one via New Mexico to El Paso, Texas. The airline stopped flying on March 1, 1948, and, despite receiving its federal certificate that June, could not raise the funds needed to resume service. Monarch Air Lines agreed to buy it in 1949, and the acquisition was approved in April 1950. On June 1, 1950, Arizona Airways, Monarch, and Challenger Airlines merged to form the original Frontier Airlines. Arizona Airways contributed routes and assets, including three DC-3 aircraft; Nelson became a Frontier vice president.
