This Independence Air T-Shirt honors a brief, memorable era in American aviation. From its Dulles home, the airline began flying under its new name on June 16, 2004, following Atlantic Coast Airlines’ move from regional partner to independent low-cost carrier. Service lasted less than two years, but its ambitious route network and unmistakable brand remain collector favorites. Wear it for airport visits, travel days, reunions, or everyday aviation conversation.
Independence Air was a low-cost airline based at Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia. Its predecessor, Atlantic Coast Airlines, began on December 15, 1989, operating feeder service for United Airlines and Delta Air Lines under their regional brands. After its United contract was withdrawn, Atlantic Coast reinvented itself as Independence Air, a transition announced on November 19, 2003. Flight operations under the new name began June 16, 2004. Owned by FLYi, Inc., the carrier was headquartered near Dulles in unincorporated Loudoun County and built a network centered on East Coast markets with service extending west. Its fleet initially emphasized 50-seat regional jets before larger Airbus A319 aircraft were added. The airline entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy on November 7, 2005, and ended service on January 5, 2006. In March 2006, Northwest Airlines acquired its operating certificate and reported that the resulting regional airline would be renamed Compass Airlines.
