Raise a glass to Aspen Airways, the Colorado carrier that connected mountain-town beginnings with a growing regional network. Founded in 1952 as the Aspen Institute's flight department, the airline built a lasting identity around its Aspen-Denver service and Convair 580 turboprops. Later, BAe 146 jets brought commercial jet service to Aspen. This pint glass celebrates a distinctive chapter in regional aviation, made for collectors, aviation enthusiasts, and anyone drawn to the story of flight between the mountains and Denver.
Aspen Airways began in 1952 as the flight department of the Aspen Institute of Humanistic Studies, founded by Walter Paepcke to carry personnel between Aspen and Denver. Originally based in Aspen, Colorado, it later moved its headquarters to Hangar 5 at Stapleton International Airport in Denver. Its early aircraft included surplus Douglas DC-3s. After operating as an air taxi, the carrier received federal authority for the Aspen-Denver route in 1967. Purchased by J.W. "Bill" Ringsby in 1963, Aspen later built its service around Convair turboprops, especially the Convair 580. In the early 1980s it expanded into California, including Lake Tahoe service. In 1985, BAe 146 jets introduced commercial jet service to Aspen and opened additional routes from Denver. Aspen became a United Express affiliate in September 1986. Offered for sale in 1989, the airline was divided in 1990: Mesa Airlines acquired its Denver hub and routes other than Denver-Aspen, while Air Wisconsin Services acquired its common stock, Aspen routes, stations, ground equipment, and aircraft. Air Wisconsin operated Aspen Airways as a separate subsidiary until merging it into Air Wisconsin on April 3, 1991. The carrier ceased independent operations on April 1, 1990.

A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
