Mark your bags with a tribute to National Airlines, the Las Vegas low-fare carrier that began service in 1999. Its focused Boeing 757 operation linked the city with selected high-traffic destinations during a brief, memorable chapter in U.S. aviation. The airline's final departure, Flight 354 to Dallas/Fort Worth, gives this luggage tag a clear connection to its story. A thoughtful pick for aviation enthusiasts, route-history fans, and collectors of short-lived airline brands.
National Airlines was a short-lived American low-fare carrier headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, and the third U.S. airline to use the National Airlines name. Harrah's Entertainment and the former Rio Hotel & Casino, Inc. each contributed $15 million toward its start-up costs in July 1998; Wexford Capital also invested. Service began on May 27, 1999, with a simple operating model centered on Boeing 757 aircraft and routes linking Las Vegas with selected high-traffic cities. Michael Conway served as president and CEO. The airline faced rising fuel costs and recession, and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on December 6, 2000. Financial pressure intensified after the September 11, 2001 attacks. National ceased operations on November 6, 2002, after 23 months in Chapter 11. Its final departure from Las Vegas was Flight 354 to Dallas/Fort Worth. At grounding, the airline served 14 U.S. destinations and had carried 1.85 million passengers through McCarran International Airport during January–November 2002. The carrier's brief history connects Las Vegas tourism, low-fare airline growth, and the financial difficulties that led to its closure.
