For kids who look up when a plane passes overhead, this Island Airlines design opens a window onto local aviation history. It celebrates the carrier that linked Hyannis with Nantucket and became known as Nantucket's Community Airline. From early island air service to the later commuter-era identity, Island Airlines has a story made for young travelers, future pilots, airport visitors, and families who love the Cape and islands.
Island Airlines was a commuter airline headquartered at Barnstable Municipal Airport in Barnstable, Massachusetts. It operated hourly scheduled flights linking Hyannis with Nantucket and used the slogan "Nantucket's Community Airline." Its roots reached to 1930, when former barnstormer Milton "Red" Hersberger developed the first aerial transport to Nantucket with two biplanes under the name Erie Isle Airways. He acquired his first Ford Trimotor in 1932, later expanding the type in the fleet. Following World War II, Hersberger obtained surplus engines for the Trimotors, renamed the operation Sky Tours, and sold it in 1953. The business changed hands again in 1973 and received the Island Airlines name in 1991 when William McGrath assumed ownership. In January 2009, the airline announced a Cessna Grand Caravan for the Hyannis-Nantucket route, later adding three more. Its Ocean Wings Air Charter operation served private-flight customers in the Northeast. Island Airlines and sister company Cape & Islands Air Freight ceased operations on December 11, 2015.
