Hooters Air Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt
Layer up with a Hooters Air heavy knit quarter-zip sweatshirt inspired by a brief, bold period in American aviation. Based in Myrtle Beach, Hooters Air operated from 2003 to 2006 and promoted flights for travelers headed to the area’s golf destinations. Its orange-and-white aircraft and Club Class service created an identity collectors still remember. This sweatshirt is an easy choice for aviation-history fans, defunct-airline collectors, and anyone drawn to distinctive early-2000s travel culture.
Hooters Air was a Myrtle Beach, South Carolina airline that operated from March 6, 2003, to April 17, 2006. Founded by Hooters of America restaurant owner Robert Brooks after he acquired Winston-Salem, North Carolina-based Pace Airlines in December 2002, the airline was owned by Hooters of America and all flights were operated by Pace. It combined scheduled USDOT public charters with ad hoc private charters, using H1 for public charters and Pace's Y5 code for ad hoc service. Marketed as a link to Myrtle Beach's golf destinations, Hooters Air used orange-and-white aircraft with Hooters branding and offered Club Class seating, leather seats, and complimentary meals on flights over one hour. Service to Rockford was scheduled to end January 5, 2006, and commercial operations were suspended January 9. Its final flight traveled from Myrtle Beach to Newark on April 17, 2006. Pace Airlines continued charter operations until September 2009.
