Bring a piece of early 1980s Florida aviation history into everyday wear with this National Florida Airlines Cotton Polo Shirt. Founded in 1981, the Daytona-based commuter airline began flying in December, connecting Daytona Beach with Miami, Orlando, and Tampa.

A thoughtful pick for airline-history enthusiasts, this polo celebrates a brief, distinctive chapter in regional air travel that ended with the company’s Chapter 7 bankruptcy on December 2, 1983.
