Island Airlines Mouse Pad
Add a little island-route history to the desk with this Island Airlines mouse pad. The design pays tribute to the commuter airline that operated from Barnstable Municipal Airport and connected Hyannis with Nantucket on scheduled flights. Island Airlines carried forward a local aviation tradition that began in 1930, passed through several identities, and remained part of Cape transportation history until operations ended in 2015. It is a thoughtful everyday choice for remote workers, travelers, aviation fans, and Nantucket-minded collectors.
Island Airlines was a commuter airline headquartered at Barnstable Municipal Airport in Barnstable, Massachusetts, operating hourly scheduled service between Hyannis and Nantucket. Its roots reached back to 1930, when former Chicago barnstormer Milton "Red" Hersberger developed the first aerial transport to Nantucket with two biplanes under the name Erie Isle Airways. In 1932, he acquired a Ford Trimotor, beginning a larger Trimotor fleet that supported the operation. Following World War II, surplus engines purchased from the United States government were used in those aircraft. Hersberger renamed the airline Sky Tours and sold it in 1953; the business changed hands again in 1973. William McGrath assumed ownership in 1991, when the operation received the Island Airlines name. The company used the slogan "Nantucket's Community Airline." In 2009, it added a Cessna Grand Caravan to the Hyannis-Nantucket route, later adding three more. Island Airlines and its sister freight company ceased operations on December 11, 2015.
