GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Celebrate the brief, distinctive run of Pacific Express with a shirt inspired by a regional airline that made an outsized impression. Based in Chico, California, the all-jet carrier began service in 1982 and built a western network of as many as 22 destinations. Its marketing partnership brought the Pan Am Pacific Express name to travelers connecting through Los Angeles and San Francisco. For airline history fans, this piece recalls a bold chapter that ended suddenly on February 2, 1984.
Pacific Express was an all-jet airline based in Chico, California, operating in the western United States from 1982 until early 1984. It was a subsidiary of WestAir Jet Inc. The carrier began service with seven British Aircraft Corporation BAC One-Eleven twin jets and later added Boeing 737-200 aircraft. It served as many as 22 destinations across the western United States. A marketing agreement with Pan American World Airways led the airline to market itself as Pan Am Pacific Express, promoting connecting passenger traffic at Los Angeles and San Francisco. Pacific Express ordered six new British Aerospace BAe 146-200 aircraft but never took delivery; some of those aircraft were subsequently purchased by Pacific Southwest Airlines. Shortly after its second anniversary, the company filed for bankruptcy in federal court and abruptly ended operations on February 2, 1984. The Pacific Express name is now used as the callsign of Pacific Airlines, described as the second-largest airline in Vietnam. Its short operating history, changing marketing identity, jet fleet, and links to larger carriers make it a distinctive chapter in the history of U.S. regional air service.
